In this case study MercuryGate needed a way to automate workflows. It turned to smc3 for help.

Maximize Efficiency and Minimize Costs with Technology-Driven Logistics Solutions for Your Business.

When posed the question of if there is really strong product consumption, coupled with consumers spending, why is that not being felt in the freight market, Prather explained that based on looking at data going back multiple decades, at time, freight transportation and the general economy get disconnected from one another.

This SMC3 blog outlines the logistics industries talent problem. A study from Alcott Global identifies the problems outlined. SMC3’s solution to these problems is teaming with the Logistics Training Center to provide coursework geared toward mastery of LTL transportation concepts.

Clearing business hurdles, achieving efficiencies and elevating customer service with SMC³’s LTL APIs, a SMC³ Case Study.

Sometimes it feels like the only regulatory certainty is the uncertainty for the less-than-truckload (LTL) industry. The first workshop in the fourth series of SMC3’s LTL Online Education focused on all things regulatory, and Washington D.C. insiders and transportation regulation experts explored today's landscape impacting LTL and the next steps to prepare for potential regulatory impacts.

There is no denying that uncertainty is an ever-present force in less-than-truckload (LTL) shipping. Changes in freight patterns, extreme weather events, equipment shortages, and a lack of drivers can all create capacity constraints for carriers, resulting in delays in delivery.

Embargoes are common in less than truckload (LTL) shipping. While there are many reasons why a carrier might set a freight embargo, they're often necessary for carriers to comply with legal restrictions, overcome logistical challenges and balance capacity during times of peak demand.

Great strides have been made to bring supply chains into the digital age. Many leading shippers and 3PLs have capitalized on TMS and LTL freight API developments, recognizing that automation can lead to greater efficiency, cost savings, and visibility.

In this paper/datasheet/case study, we describe, whether connecting to a carrier with API or EDI messaging, you’re looking for effective, responsive shipment data that can streamline decision-making throughout all parts of the shipment lifecycle.

Bid$ense allowed IL2000 to manage all bid responses through a single integrated dashboard, giving them the ability to process bids faster, manage the increasing scope of bids, and get more out of each procurement event.

In the LTL world, that first freight quote doesn’t always reflect the final cost of moving goods from origin to destination.

In this whitepaper, we show you how the transportation industry is increasing its focus on the final mile, but also the middle mile, where freight gets moved to distribution centers and fulfillment houses, and why LTL and truckload are battling for that space.
