MacroPoint’s tracking software will be activated on the mobile phones of drivers hired by NFI’s carrier partners to provide load status and location data. This will provide NFI’s customers with real-time data on location, on-time delivery monitoring, and arrival/departure notifications.
“We chose MacroPoint to fill a gap in the track and trace function of our business,” said David Broering, senior vice president of integrated solutions at NFI. “MacroPoint gives us another tool to use to provide our carrier partners with options for updating us with the location of the loads they’re hauling.”
