Recent research reveals that transportation planners waste up to 70% of their time making pickup and delivery appointments. Providing carriers the ability to make their own appointments online via a cloud-based 24/7 dock scheduling portal saves time for both parties. That time saved doing carrier appointment scheduling manually could be used on exception management and operational efficiency.

Shippers and receivers can book pickup/delivery appointments online (for docks, transfer terminals or silos) to digitalize the scheduling process – saving time-consuming administrative work.
