Prophesy Transportation Solutions is expanding into serving small trucking companies with DispatchSelect, a trucking software management system designed and priced for small for-hire trucking fleets.

DispatchSelect offers an integrated solution that will include dispatch, freight rating, driver settlements, freight billing, driver check calls, driver advances, asset tracking, commercial mileage & routing, fuel-tax reporting, integrated management reporting, vehicle maintenance & repair and basic brokerage functionality.
An optional interface to the popular QuickBooks Pro or PeachTree Accounting software is also available.
Prophesy estimates that the independent and small for-hire carrier market will enable the company to reach over $100 million in untapped market potential. Until now, the company primarily served the medium to large for-hire carriers. By re-bundling and lowering the price of their software solutions to the vast and growing number of smaller for-hire carriers, Prophesy expects to reach many companies located outside the scope of its traditional customer. The company has identified over 100,000 such companies, with less than 15 trucks, within the United States and Canada.
"We have the trucking industry's most comprehensive and recognized product line, but it's never been targeted and/or priced to accommodate the budgets of a small for-hire carrier, despite our extensive penetration in this market," said William G. Ashburn, Prophesy Vice President.
Included in the DispatchSelect offer, Prophesy will provide free telephone and Internet based training as well as toll-free technical support. Prophesy users will also have access to online updates through Prophesy's popular Internet trucking web portal mile.com.
The company predicts 50-percent plus gain in productivity would be commonplace for a small fleet of 15 trucks or less using DispatchSelect.
