Carrier Logistics will give carriers an alternative option for electronic data interchange feeds through a new integration with project44, the company has announced.

Using the new connection allows for real-time communication for carriers of all modes and sizes. With the integration, project44 shipper and 3PL clients can instantly connect to any carrier using a CLI system, adding more diversity, flexibility and connectivity options to all parties of a transaction.

The partnership is currently live and in use.

The system is used by shippers and 3PLs to connect their IT environments with transportation networks and assets. Its cloud-based API technology is designed to compete with EDI and is capable of completing more than 500,000 daily rate requests, dispatches, tracking and imaging calls and other transactions between carriers and their customers.

“3PLs and shippers can connect to all of their transportation service providers effortlessly,” said Ken Weinberg, vice president and co-founder of Carrier Logistics. “The new system is an excellent alternative to EDI, and systems can be configured to enable rating, dispatch, tracking and imaging calls directly to their carrier networks with one call to project44.”
