š£ Sunny Ahead? Freight Market Outlook
Uber Freight's new program draws scrutiny, ILA negotiations hit a wall, and FMCSA's Operation Protect Your Load takes aim at unlawful freight brokerages.
Integration of #1-rated owner-operator load board and #1-rated TMS software expands services for brokers and carriers.
TAMPA, FLA. āMay 7, 2024 ā This week, TruckSmarter, currently the fastest growing load board for brokers and carriers, and AscendTMS, the #1 rated transportation management system (TMS), have announced their official integration.
The integration allows freight brokers using the AscendTMS platform to post quickly and easily to TruckSmarterās 100% free load board, largely comprised of tens of thousands of dedicated owner operators. Together, the two logistics leaders will give brokers greater access to free load posting services, with increased reach to TruckSmarterās 120,000 carriers, and the convenience of one-click posting to the top-rated load board for owner operators through the AscendTMS platform.
Paolo Bernasconi, TruckSmarter Co-Founder and CTO, says, āWeāre excited to partner with AscendTMS and grateful for their support. Together, we will equip brokers, especially mid- to small-sized brokers, with more and better tools to move freight. The TruckSmarter Load Board is not only free for brokers, but it allows brokers to post unlimited loads, however they choose, including in their TMS. So, we end up aligning with and amplifying their workflow, instead of forcing them to adjust to a new platform.ā
Tim Higham, CEO of AscendTMS, said; āMany brokers and shippers prefer working with professional owner operators because the level of service is so high, and the overall driver performance is superior. This integration allows thousands of active AscendTMS brokers and shippers to post their loads directly to these owner operators, and to easily access this high performing and reliable capacity with one single click.ā
TruckSmarter quickly became the top-rated load board for carriers to use because, in addition to being 100% free, the application offers truck drivers and owners a suite of tools to help them build, manage, and grow their business, including fuel discounts, factoring, and banking services.
Bernasconi continues, āOur mission is to empower truck driversā lives, and by making it easier for quality brokers to post to our load board, weāre able to offer more and better loads for our carriers. And itās just the beginning. We look forward to future integrations to come that will provide simpler, more cost-effective solutions for brokers and carriers.ā
