Freight RFP Management demo

What the demo shows

A freight RFP solution for shippers: run a lane-by-lane carrier bid and award rates that hold.

Agents build lanes from a year of shipments, read every bid cell and note and build award scenarios, while a challenger compares each bid with what that bidder accepted as primary carrier on similar lanes and applies each bidder’s own terms to every lane it would win. Lanes priced too low or hanging on terms are flagged as at risk at tender, with the spot cost they could leak, and bidders clarify in fixed fields. The procurement manager moves lanes at risk and submits the award, which then freezes; the VP of logistics opens the lanes at risk and the challenger’s points before signing. Each carrier’s award notice shows only its own lanes.
