CLI customers benefit from new integration with SMC³’s LTL APIs
Summary
The new integration will benefit customers using FACTS freight management software by automating the handling of LTL shipments with other capacity providers. “The nature of LTL freight transportation involves complex supply chain logistics that our asset-based clients address every day to efficiently move goods for shippers,” said Ben Wiesen, president of CLI. “With our integration to SMC³’s LTL APIs we can offer our customers a single-facing solution for overcoming logistics challenges,” Wiesen added. CLI integrated with SMC³ because it makes doing business easier for the many users of our freight management system.” Through the seamless integration with FACTS, in near real-time, CLI customers can use the SMC³ LTL APIs solution to connect and communicate with the expansive number of LTL carriers in the SMC³ network to: • Electronically find carriers with capacity, schedules, and equipment that meet their shippers’ needs • Receive quotes from multiple carriers to find the provider who offers the right mix of cost and service • View and download digital documents including weight certification, proof of delivery, bills of lading, and other critical shipment information. FACTS include online customer shipping tools, dispatch and driver management, a superior rate engine, cross-dock management, and a full back-office suite that give transportation professionals the tools they need to operate cost-effectively while providing improved freight visibility to their customers.
