Account Description:
-
The broker account allows users to post available freight
online. The Dashboard
link for this account provides brokers with current postings, past
postings, and data available for analysis and quality decision-making.
Once a bid has been posted, carriers can bid on the freight. After the
bid closing date has passed, brokers can choose the most qualified
carrier to haul the freight. Brokers will be able to search for
available trucks within a specified mileage radius, and have the
option of sending an email to the carrier. This will notify the
carrier(s) that there is an available load in the area and bids are
ready to be accepted.
Integration :
-
If you are a current Dispatching Solutions Inc.customer, there is a custom webservice
available through the broker form that allows users to post availble
freight online. With the click of a button, freight will be uploaded to
the internet, allowing carriers worldwide to bid on the freight. The
data will then sync back to the Dispatch program, creating a record of
this transaction that is then stored in the user's database.

Advantages :

Brokers can search through all bids, and choose the best carrier for the move.
The winning bidder may be the highest, lowest or in-between bidder. However, the
decision is at the discretion of the poster, who decides which carrier is best
qualified to suit their needs.
