The technology will increase transparency for customers while streamlining their supply chain, Roadrunner Freight President Frank Hurst said. RapidShip will enable small to midsize LTL shippers to automate transportation functions and gain more control over transportation costs, Hurst said.
Roadrunner Freight officials said customers will be able to make routing decisions for all carriers while having access to a full suite of tools that will improve shipment visibility.
RapidShip offers a single-page view for quotes, real-time tracking information, carrier consolidation and a calendar view of upcoming and current shipments, allowing shippers to identify their preferred carrier for each shipment, according to the company.
Roadrunner Freight, a division of Roadrunner LTL, has 29 service centers and partnerships across the United States. It offers expansive longhaul, regional and next-day service in all major U.S. markets.
