Setup their pay structure, whether it is simple or complex, and let our intermodal software solution calculate the drivers pay for you.
Maximize Productivity With Inventive Intermodal Trucking Software
Your transportation software needs to do more than just help you; it needs to keep your customers up-to-date on their freight. You can do this through automatic customer notifications, so they will know the status of their freight as soon as you do. Or, give them web portal access to do things like:
- Trace their shipments
- View/email/print PODs
- Request rate quotes
- Gain access to information with APIs
Manage Your Documents
Use the built in document management to reduce paper handling and its costs. To help even further, you can implement the Tailored Mobile driver solution to eliminate back-office paper handling, making your dispatch office quieter and less chaotic.
Easy Billing
Streamline your billing procedures using automatic rating, discounting, fuel surcharges, and accessorial charges. Email customer invoices with backup documents, reducing invoicing time and costs. Or send the invoices via EDI, again, completely automated.
Keep Your Agents Connected
Enhance your logistics operations with our Intermodal Software. If you have agents, connect them directly to your system through our Agent Web Portal, granting them controlled access to essential data. Agents can easily enter orders for their customers, manage driver dispatching, and update delivery statuses in real time. With our Intermodal trucking software, you’ll increase collaboration across your network, optimizing operations and strengthening partnerships for efficient, seamless transport solutions.

Problem: Yard Pull
If your customer cannot accept a container, you may have no choice but to hold it in your yard until the customer is equipped to receive it. Yard pulls throw a wrench in your schedule and cost valuable time and money.
Solution:
Easily modify any advance or on-the-fly order to include unanticipated yard pulls. For your convenience, the associated charges to the client will automatically be added.
—
Problem: Chassis Tracking and Auditing
If chassis are supplied with the container through a third party, carriers are billed by the day. It takes careful attention and extra work to audit these invoices regularly to ensure these costs are recovered from the customer.
Solution:
Are you tired of dealing with financial loss from mixed-up invoices? Use the chassis audit module included with your Intermodal transportation software to track the number of days you are being invoiced to charge your customers properly. The driver can also enter when they make the pickup, allowing for accurate and reliable tracking.
—
Problem: Container Storage
You may have to deal with additional storage charges if the container is not picked up within the allotted time frame, causing significant losses in time and money.
Solution:
Your software automatically highlights containers approaching their last free storage day, enabling you to coordinate pickups to avoid charges properly.
—
Problem: Document Management
Each order must incorporate various files and documents, which can be challenging to track. Nothing is worse than the headache caused by lost, mixed-up paperwork.
Solution:
Our intermodal software solutions automatically associate documents with their designated order. Use the tailored mobile application to appoint which documents you want to be collected by the driver and when you want them collected. Take high-quality photographs of papers on the go and stay organized.
—
Problem: Customer Reporting
For an intermodal move, various parties may be interested in status updates. Because you want your customers to be satisfied, the conversations and research involved in each inquiry take up an immense amount of time.
Solution:
Efficiently coordinate automatic notifications and reports to keep all interested parties in the loop, keeping your customers happy and saving you a great deal of time.
—
Problem: Task-Based Driver Pay
Task-based driver pay is essential to ensure each driver is paid relatively based on the tasks they complete. However, it can get complicated to coordinate payments, as simple moves can affect multiple orders.
Solution:
Use our driver pay tariffs, which allow you to pay drivers for each task, including those associated with various orders. You can also pay in different pay periods for work in the same order.
—
Problem: Tracing Inbound Containers
Tracing inbound containers and advance scheduling allows you to deliver orders as soon as possible while avoiding unnecessary storage charges. Although this can be confusing, it helps you identify the workload in the coming days.
Solution:
Tracing inbound containers doesn’t have to be so complicated and time-consuming. Use our intermodal software solutions with direct integrations to six of America’s major railroads, including UP, NS, CSX, CP, CN, and BN. These integrations automatically mark inbound containers as grounded while importing the last free day to help you avoid additional fees and charges.
—
Problem: Driver Detention
Sometimes, your drivers may be held at a specific pickup location or make deliveries past the allotted time.
Solution:
Take advantage of automatic notifications that show you when a driver is approaching detention and when they enter detention.
