Beyond Spot Quoting: How a Modern TMS Revolutionizes Shipment Cost Management
The logistics industry, vital for global commerce, has long been hampered by the cumbersome process of manual spot quoting—a method as outdated as it is inefficient. While this approach offers a rough estimate of shipping costs, it typically leads to shippers paying more than necessary. The traditional process of obtaining quotes is too slow, manual, and cumbersome, especially for shippers managing frequent freight shipments. Such shippers require a more streamlined and flexible solution, one that ensures they are getting the most competitive rates for their freight.
