TOGGLE Freight Management Systems

Description

With over 50 years of industry experience, Toggle understands the dynamic nature of the shipping industry, including fluctuating fuel prices, retiring drivers, and uncertain material supplies. They were looking for a solution that could effectively anticipate changes in pricing and availability, ensuring maximum value for each shipment. The objective was to develop a comprehensive Freight Management System (FMS) that could offer third-party logistics companies a platform to manage shipments, monitor freight movement, and improve driver connectivity and overall operational efficiency.


Challenge

The top challenge was to ensure real-time monitoring and issue detection throughout the entire freight-moving process while incorporating truck breakdowns and shipment condition verification. AI and ML algorithms needed to be implemented to analyze data and determine the most efficient routes for heavy vehicles. The interface has to be user-friendly for drivers and third-party logistics firms to manage shipments and communicate directly.


Solutions

The advanced Freight Management System (FMS) that Softnotions developed ensures the entire freight-moving process is smooth. The FMS is designed to improve the lives of drivers by connecting them to the market and providing them with opportunities to increase earnings for both new and experienced drivers. The solution utilizes IoT devices for the real-time tracking of truck performance and shipment conditions and sends instant alerts and notifications. An intelligent matching algorithm connects drivers with shipments based on their skill sets, preferences, locations, and availability. Third-party logistics firms can use the app to manage their shipments. AI and ML technology are employed for optimized route planning and the accurate transportation of shipments, specifically designed for heavy vehicles. The solution makes invoicing and reporting easy so costs are under control. The detailed shipment reports generated offer insights into performance metrics and financials leading to better accountability between carriers and suppliers.
