Loadsmart Provides Instant Truckload Spot Quotes in Kuebix
June 30 2020 - 8:00AM
Kuebix, a Trimble Company, and leading transportation management
system (TMS) provider and creator of the Kuebix shipping community,
and Loadsmart, a digital freight technology company, today
announced that every shipper in Kuebix can now receive real-time
Loadsmart spot quotes on truckload shipments. The collaboration
builds upon Kuebix’s current API integration with Loadsmart’s
digital freight platform with an API integration that automatically
provides live Loadsmart freight rates to any Kuebix user looking
for a truckload spot quote.
"At Loadsmart, we are really proud of our work with Kuebix and
the value we deliver to our joint customers,” said Casey Monahan,
Director of SME at Loadsmart. “Combining a best in class TMS with
instantly bookable spot quotes is a game-changer that reduces phone
calls and lag time, allowing customers to book the best price
instantly and track it all in real time 24/7. With a deep
collaboration at many levels, a strong understanding of our
customers, and a long term strategy, we not only provide the value
clients want, but the exceptional service they need."
When a Kuebix user searches for a truckload spot rate in
Community Load Match, a real-time Loadsmart rate will appear that
can be immediately booked and managed in the Kuebix TMS. The
addition of instantly bookable Loadsmart rates further enhances
Community Load Match’s current contract and spot rate capabilities.
Community Load Match's rapidly growing carrier community from
Trimble’s network of 1.3 million commercial trucks offers access to
contract rates for shippers with regular lanes. For small- to
medium-size businesses (SMBs) and shippers with occasional spot
requirements, Community Load Match provides competitive spot rates
when shippers don't have the volume to set up contract rates. For
carriers, Community Load Match's spot opportunities help to balance
lanes, offset empty miles and reposition assets.
“Growing our strategic collaboration with Loadsmart makes our
community even stronger,” said Peter Coumounduros, General Manager
Load Match Group, Kuebix. “Our goal is to remove the friction from
finding and securing trucks. We are extremely pleased to have
Loadsmart’s real-time spot quotes available to all shippers in
Community Load Match, as this new capability makes the sourcing
process even more efficient.”
To help companies manage their supply chains efficiently in
today’s market environment, Kuebix is offering shippers 60 free
days of its award-winning Kuebix Business Pro TMS. With Kuebix
Business Pro, logistics teams can collaborate remotely across
multiple locations, source spot and leverage actionable reports and
