No Data Scientists or IT resources required. See exactly where you’re overpaying and underperforming on a lane-by-lane basis, then run RFPs as needed with historical carrier performance data and in-line market benchmarks from providers like DAT, Truckstop, and FreightWaves SONAR. An automated award-optimizer allows you to select and run scenarios that best suit your business needs without the need for spreadsheets. Start seeing and actioning your cost and service improvement opportunities in as little as two weeks. Learn more at goodship.io
