The Client
With the cost of gas lingering above $3 a gallon, companies in the transportation industry are shackled with either eroding profit, or the constant task of improving business processes and cutting costs. TMS's unique approach to transportation allows them to expand offerings, improve logistics and lower prices. Clarity enabled integrations to dozens of shipping carriers to provide comparative shipping rates in real time.
Existing Problems
Integrating with one or two carriers is pretty easy. Integrating with 50 (i.e. ABF, Central Freight Lines, Con-Way, Estes, FedEx Freight, Old Dominion, ASIA, SEFL, YRC, AAA Cooper, Holland, RL, Southeastern Freight Lines just to name a few)? Where to even begin? What about lettings private truckers add their runs into the mix as well? That would take forever!
Our Solutions
Well, not exactly forever. Clarity jumped in and integrated their Clarity Connect™ platform and started integrating every carrier TMS could think of. Next we built a platform that allowed truckers to register their runs to be included in each search. Finally, an interface to allow someone looking for a carrier to get real-time quotes from dozens of options to find the best deal.
The Benefits
TMS offers one of the only sites that allows truckers to compete with the big carriers. Think Uber, but for trucking, and TMS has been offering it for almost five years! Automatic Bills of Lading, orders, tracking, registrations, pricing comparisons and much more have allowed TMS to grow their business with no new resources.
Technologies
The front-end CMS is DNN’s Evoq Professional. HTML5, CSS3 and Modernizr was used to create the responsive template.
Clarity Connect, JavaScript, JQuery, Telerik controls were all needed for various features and functionality, as well as a host of DNN modules, like XMod Pro, Easy DNN News, Rotator and Gallery.
