Roadrunner Freight, a business unit of Roadrunner Transportation Systems, Inc., has introduced a newly integrated tool to give less-than-truckload (LTL) shippers instant access to Volume Spot Quotes via API connectivity.
Roadrunner Freight has recently expanded and enhanced its ability to conveniently provide pricing to LTL shippers by adding innovative technology that allows shippers to receive instant Volume Spot Quotes. The dynamic pricing tool adjusts spot quote rates based on real-time capacity needs. Through Roadrunner Freight’s 29 service centers and strategic partnerships, shippers will now have visibility to spot quotes in more than five hundred long haul lanes.
“We are extremely excited to launch another technology that improves shipment visibility and network transparency to our customers. We feel that this tool will drastically change the way Volume Spot Quotes are sourced,” explained Frank Hurst, President of Roadrunner Freight. “By connecting our planning, linehaul and costing systems, our customers now have real-time access to available capacity within our network and are provided options to reduce LTL spend. Through API connectivity, our new Volume Spot Quote tool allows customers to instantly quote, book and trace shipments tendered to Roadrunner Freight.”
Shippers can access the Spot Quote API tool by logging in to their existing account on freight.rrts.com, or can request a quote on rrts.com/freight.
