  • Transportation One now will provide customers with a proprietary freight marketplace branded to their business.

Transportation One, one of the nation’s fastest-growing logistics companies, has joined forces with FreightRover to drive supply chain efficiencies through digital freight automation.

Record-tight capacity and record-high rates have many shippers and third-party logistics providers scrambling to develop private freight marketplaces and other proprietary solutions in response. Taking a much different approach, Transportation One selected FreightRover’s suite of tools to quickly add digital freight brokerage to its business model. The company also plans to leverage FreightRover’s customizable platform as a tailored transportation management system unique to Transportation One’s operations to support faster growth and scalability.

Transportation One now will provide their customers with a private, proprietary freight marketplace branded to their business, as well as a carrier-facing portal for quicker carrier payments (many quick pay options offered) and overall seamless payment automation. In addition, Transportation One will use FreightRover’s white-labeled SmartLTL to instantaneously gather rates from multiple carriers and simplify LTL shipment management.

“Utilizing FreightRover’s leading-edge features and leveraging its technology as the foundation to build our own robust platform enables Transportation One to become a digital freight broker that competes with the top proprietary solutions out there,” said Jamie Teets, CEO of Transportation One. “We believe that investing in both people and technology will drive efficiencies and improve carrier and shipper satisfaction that will place us at the top of the industry.  We are excited for this collaborative and strategic partnership.”

FreightRover’s suite of digital products are positioned to increase Transportation One’s efficiency and productivity, improve margin to generate customer cost savings, and reduce overall operating costs. By providing customers with personalized service and employees with software that eases everyday manual processes, Transportation One is poised to continue their rapid growth.

“While the transportation industry focuses on improving efficiencies in an era when consumers demand time-sensitive and visible delivery end-to-end, Transportation One is investing in new capabilities that drive profitable growth,” said Eric Meek, CEO of FreightRover. “FreightRover has taken a comprehensive approach to technological advancement, building individual solutions to touch upon each of the fragmentation points within transportation.”

FreightRover continues to transform transportation digitization through online carrier quick pay, automated LTL rate return and invoicing, and a private freight marketplace where shippers and 3PLs post freight to their preferred carriers.

Now, transportation companies can use FreightRover’s next-generation technology suite as a solution branded to their business, effectively providing customers with the same products and services as the largest 3PLs in the industry with improved scale and speed.
