Multi Carrier Shipping

You need to streamline enterprise parcel shipping with worldwide carrier coverage to:

Cut transportation costs
Enhance on-time delivery performance
Boost shipment visibility
Mitigate shipment and supply chain risks

E-Commerce sales - Increasing order volumes and rising customer expectations can be a challenge for your organization
Capacity constraints - Shippers are scrambling for alternatives as parcel shipment volume has grown and many carriers have enacted caps on the number of shipments
Last mile delivery - Last mile delivery can be both the most expensive and time-consuming part of your company’s shipping process

Capabilities

Carrier selection

QAD’s solution allows you to choose the carrier that best meets the needs of a particular shipment based on rates, routing, rates, transit times and add-on services.

Carrier network

Your enterprise can leverage a carrier network of over 5,500 carriers located around the globe to ensure shipments arrive on time.

Shipment tracking

Share tracking information with your customers or look up order status quickly, which builds greater trust and confidence. Receive real-time updates, alerts and proof of delivery notifications.

Future-proof delivery

You can leverage technology and new parcel delivery services that agile carriers provide including autonomous vehicles, “white glove” delivery services and roving Pick-Up/Drop-Off facilities.

Carrier, Service and Mode Selection: Using the Routing Guide, your organization can automatically assign a carrier service based on a shipment’s characteristics, the carrier constraints and your configured rules and guidelines.

Rate Shopping: The system provides you with a list of available carrier services showing estimated cost, transit times and ETA dates for best selection decision making.

Freight Quoting: Your organization gains access to an estimated freight rate at the time of quotation or order entry by using the Rate Shopping capabilities in advance of the actual shipment.

Multi-Modal Shipments: Manage multiple modes of transport, (e.g., parcel, less-than-truckload (LTL), truckload (TL), air, rail, barge and ocean), including transitions to alternate modes for the same shipment.

Address Verification: Verify and enrich the accuracy of your address data across 249 countries and territories. For ambiguous addresses, suggested addresses are provided to reduce undelivered or delayed shipments.

Carrier Integration: Leverage pre-built integrations with an extensive list of global carriers and the range of services they offer. Add new carrier integrations while meeting specific technology requirements.

Tracking / PRO / Waybill Number Generation: Generate carrier tracking numbers according to various carrier formats, utilizing ranges, prefixes and check digits. Tracking numbers can be used in shipment documentation, electronic notifications and for tracking purposes.
