A proper freight transportation solution is a critical part of supply chains, selecting the carrier for products is paramount. Since all transportation needs are different, at GoToTruckers we have the brokers who will filter and select the highest quality carriers that are flexible to your needs. We start by designing the transportation solutions our clients need and ensuring we have enough back-up plans to maintain our high service levels.
Efficient Brokers – Freight Transportation Solutions
In today’s globalized industry, one of the biggest assets are efficient brokers, who have the ability to overcome the language barrier. Since many of the biggest representatives from the trucking business don’t have English as their first language, being able to communicate effectively with them in their native language has also become a key to create better relationships and improve communications both ways. This closeness with both the trucker and the broker can lead to better relationships and better prices.
New technologies and the ability to work remotely, help make today’s freight brokers strong examples of how to reduce operational costs while saving time and money to shippers and carriers. With artificial intelligence to handle repetitive tasks, most freight brokers can work on what they do best: building relationships with carriers and providing outstanding service to shippers.
Freight Transportation Solutions

Current tools like transportation management systems (sometimes called TMS) help plan and make better decisions by putting many day-to-day tasks and activities on a single, digital platform. The fact that most of these TMSs are cloud-based and scalable makes this technology affordable for brokers of all sizes. Digital freight visibility has also become a major player in the industry, offering brokers and 3PLs real-time digital load tracking data for their loads. These real-time visibility platforms help meet and exceed the visibility consistency and compliance requirements of shippers. Better yet, this real-time visibility platform can be integrated with TMS.
As if it weren’t enough, today’s freight brokers can eve provide the best service thanks to freight matching software, that matches the loads with the best available trucks. This helps reduce the need to arrange for additional load boards and reduces the cost per load by giving carriers the ability to view available loads 24-7 and integrate it with TMS.
Machine Learning
Additionally, freight brokers can use powerful algorithms and machine learning to determine where truck capacity will be in the future via predictive loads. This allows brokers to see truck capacities in advance and to book those trucks before they become publicly available. By getting a leg up on competitors, GoToTruckers has developed and harnessed the power of these systems and plan to cover loads quicker.
To top it all off, our developers have been able to integrate these tools into one system that can “talk” to other systems used by the companies we work with. That’s why and how technology based solutions work and integrate with shipper visibility platforms and are able to instantly share real-time updates with shippers and carriers.
