Load board software, also known as freight matching software, is used by carriers, brokers, and shippers to match shippers’ loads with freight carriers for cross-country transportation. This software helps facilitate more efficient, data-driven transportation decisions by suggesting the best carriers based on dimensions such as distance, market rates, past performance, location, or freight size. As such, load board software often integrates with transportation management systems (TMS) to book freight necessary to execute the transportation model. It can also help refine the transportation model by using machine learning to optimize routes based on fuel prices, IFTA taxes, and the carrier’s available space.
Shippers benefit from this tool’s carrier performance functionalities, as it allows them to re-book with freight companies that have dropped off their loads efficiently and cost-effectively. Shippers also gain value from load board software’s tracking and visibility features to ensure no issues arise in transit. This is accomplished either through native functionalities or by integrating with supply chain visibility software. Finally, freight matching software helps carriers negotiate better rates with brokers and shippers through credit reports and statewide outbound and inbound trucking rates.
