DOWNERS GROVE, Ill.,
Feb. 26, 2020 /PRNewswire/
-- Roadrunner Freight, a business unit of Roadrunner
Transportation Systems, Inc. ("Roadrunner" or the "company") (NYSE:
RRTS), has digitized the paper bill of lading process through
advanced API connectivity, providing a solution to a common
obstacle for Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) shippers. This new
integration will enable customers to electronically submit shipping
documents and improve the quality of data throughout the pickup
request process.
"This enhancement does more than just automate a paper bill of
lading," says Frank Hurst, President
of Roadrunner Freight. "The LTL industry is dominated by paper and
manual processes, and this new capability will transform the way
that shippers and carriers communicate."
Roadrunner Freight's new technology enables LTL shippers to
automate shipping processes and goes even further by enabling
digital rate requests, Bill of Lading creation, document sharing,
shipping label creation and pickup requests through a single API
call.
"This new integration follows the launch of our free
Transportation Management System (TMS), RapidShip LTL, and API
Volume Spot Quote tool," continues Hurst. "These advancements are
just another step forward in our quest to automate and simplify LTL
shipping for our customers."
