T3 Tech announced the launch of a transportation management system developed for small fleet owners and operators.
Small fleets operating 20 or fewer trucks — the long tail of trucking capacity — comprise 97% of about 500,000 for-hire motor carriers registered with the DOT, according to T3 Tech.
TrueTMS has a user-friendly interface and structured workflows that support all steps in the order-to-cash lifecycle of freight transactions. The cloud-native system is designed to help fleets improve driver, load, and asset management to grow revenue, profitability, and accelerate cash flow.
"Every trucking company starts out small," said Jared Akers, managing director of TrueTMS in a press release. "Our goal in developing TrueTMS is to make room for growth. We do this by removing technology roadblocks and delivering a powerful back office that streamlines and scales fleet operations."
Core Software Features
Load Management: Users can assign loads to drivers, track their progress, and adjust routes as needed to maximize profitability.
Driver Dispatch Management: Users can optimize routes and have end-to-end visibility of load progress to ensure safe, on-time deliveries.
ELD Integration: TrueTMS is compatible with about 30 ELD providers to deliver real-time visibility of assets, driver hours, and other status details for planning loads and maintaining compliance.
On-Demand Reporting: Fleets can access their data from user-friendly dashboards and customized reports to make better and faster decisions.
TrueTMS integrates with existing software systems and users can access the system on any device.
