Our software includes numerous features we can tailor for 3PL applications.
1. Route optimization
The sophisticated algorithm can identify and select the most efficient trucking routes that reduce driving times and minimize fuel consumption. It can also optimize routes featuring multiple stops to ensure the most efficient and cost-effective path. Get access to additional routing features like satellite mapping, door-to-door driving directions, and batch routing for large datasets.
2.
Mileage calculation
Use our software to calculate distances precisely for all routes. This information is crucial for ensuring accurate estimations and reliable billing information. It also helps determine fuel costs throughout the trip, including factoring in the vehicle type.
3.
Vehicle tracking
The tracking feature lets users pinpoint vehicles' locations at any point during their journey. This information can assist with rerouting when unexpected delays occur, helping to keep deliveries on schedule. You'll also be able to provide accurate delivery times and keep customers informed of any changes.
4.
Compliance capabilities
Our software can generate state-specific mileage reports and other data to ensure regulatory compliance in areas such as fuel taxes, driver service hours, and weight limits. This information can minimize your dependence on manual recordkeeping, reducing the potential for human error.
5.
Forecasting
You'll be able to predict important parameters like fuel surcharges and freight costs before a trip, allowing you to optimize pricing accuracy. You can use this data to determine the most cost-effective route, whether the trip includes a single stop or multiple destinations.
6.
Scalability
If your business volume fluctuates, you need to adapt quickly. The best 3PL software is scalable to meet your company's evolving demands. Whether you’re adding routes or adjusting an en route delivery on the fly, you’ll be able to ensure top-notch service and meet your customers' requirements.
