We’re so eager to show off our 3PL software and freight transportation system at this year’s Internet Retailer Convention and Exhibition (IRCE). The event is being held in Chicago from June 5-8 and is the largest E-commerce exhibit in the world. Over 8,000 attendees are expected at the McCormick Place West, the largest conference center in the U.S.

Our Web-enabled freight software and services are available to business owners via our proprietary TMS and API technology, which when used in tandem or separately have simplified the way more than 600,000 accounts ship LTL and truckload freight. We’ve developed our transportation management software to enable online retailers and enterprises access to an extensive network of LTL and truckload freight carriers. For those who will be attending the show, we invite you to stop by booth #741 so we can show you how FreightCenter.com can save you time, increase efficiency and lower your transportation spend.

3PL Software Reduces Labor for Online Businesses

We have the answer to your shipping woes!

Web-based businesses look to 3PL software, like freight tools powered by FreightCenter.com, to cut costs and labor by developing freight shipping solutions that are easy for them to install and for their customers to use. At FreightCenter.com, we offer instant rate comparisons from multiple top carriers as well as a variety of LTL and truckload logistics services and 3PL business software.
best transportation management system TMS on the market
While some companies may be familiar with the shipping industry, they may be unaware of the plethora of equipment options, accessorials and details that affect their transportation spend and reduce the efficiency of their operations. Factors such as weight, carrier-defined shipping zones, insurance rates and market conditions can contribute to potential hikes in the final shipping cost.

FreightCenter.com has an entire team comprised of logistics experts who know the ins and outs of shipping freight so we can help you navigate freight like you never have before.

While our e-commerce customers are generally interested in our API and carrier EDI services, we also offer a proprietary TMS(transportation management system) that manages specific freight requirements and handles rating, booking and billing. Users can manage their shipping account online, track the status of their shipment and review past orders. The software was developed in house, which makes it unique. Did you know that some 3PL software providers do not have complete control over IT? Simply better and smarter, the FreightCenter.com TMS is a leading freight management system on the market, complete with the ability to handle both LTL and truckload freight and leverage our best rates or import your own carrier contracts and discounts.

When a company needs to make heavy or oversized shipments, having a resource that expertly handles all of the rating, booking, scheduling, billing and settlement tasks can significantly reduce the amount of labor needed to run your business.

For most businesses, freight shipping is a requirement of doing business.  However, the hassles previously associated with the process are now unnecessary.FreightCenter.com has stayed ahead of the curve when it comes to 3PL software technology and customer service.  What does that mean for you? Less time spent managing freight and more time to deal with other important aspects of your business.
