Minimizes Your Freight Spend Using Your Actual Freight Rates

• LTL rates determined by the tariff of your choice -- LoadOpt^tm has built-in LTL tariff lookup capability, or let your TMS calculate the LTL charges for each shipment and pass them to LoadOpt^tm
   
• Use actual TL rates per mile or point-to-point -- Use LoadOpt^tm's built-in TL rating engine or pass rates from your TMS.  Either way, it's freight cost, not miles, that is minimized in the optimized plan.  State-to-state rates, City-to-state rates, Zip-to-Zip rates, and more, no problem
   
• Pool distribution and consolidation points selected on cost -- A full-featured pool service rating engine built-in allows LoadOpt^tm to select the lowest cost transfer facility, even when more than one could handle the shipment.  Considers up to 5 options for each shipment from any number of candidate pool facilities you set up in LoadOpt^tm.  If you'd like to explore pools, and don't have existing rates and relationships with pool consolidators/distributors, call us, we can get you going quickly with our preferred partners.  Not sure which pools you should be considering?  We can provide a cost-effective analysis to help you decide.
   
• Optimize your Private Fleet utilization -- Supply LoadOpt^tm with your Private Fleet cost parameters along with LTL and TL rates and let LoadOpt^tm determine which loads should be handled by the fleet and which by for-hire services.  Maximize the value of your fleet by taking advantage of pool distribution and consolidation while you optimize across your fleet and for-hire carriers.
   
• Results in more attractive freight for the carriers -- TL carriers use their rates to steer freight to lanes where they need more volume or to destinations where they need empty vehicles.  Freight-rate-based optimization drives freight to routes the carriers actually prefer
   
• Load reports show estimated costs and savings vs LTL -- Continually monitor cost savings versus LTL and track where pool consolidation is most effective.  If your company is a 3PL or motor carrier, you can get a profit estimate directly from LoadOpt^tm
   
• Track deviations from optimal route selection -- When your planners change the optimized loads in LoadOpt^tm's planning screens, the cost impacts are tracked for later evaluation
