Aljex Software is launching a new, web-hosted transportation management platform, Aljex Vision, which will allow users to operate from a single dispatch screen.

"We've created a dispatch screen that's easy to understand and that accepts all the input required to dispatch virtually any shipment," said Tom Heine, president of Aljex. "That includes company trucks, commercial truckload, LTL, airfreight, and both rail and international intermodal."

For a single monthly fee, Aljex Vision offers the ability to check carrier safety ratings, send and receive payments, and compute least-cost routing by mode. Aljex Vision can rate shipments and audit the resulting invoices for accuracy.

Aljex Vision includes all the services of Aljex TIN (Transportation Intermediary Network). This includes features such as a Google map interface, the ability to post to multiple load boards automatically, and SmartSearch, the Aljex feature that displays and contacts carriers who have handled similar loads in the past. Users can offer loads via e-mail or fax. SmartSearch can display load offers and bids for that load, and trusted carriers can accept loads 24 hours a day.
