Transfix has launched Fleet Planner 2.0, its free, online tool that gives small and mid-sized carriers access to a centralized platform for managing fleets.
Fleet Planner 2.0 is designed to solve specific pain points experienced by small and mid-sized carriers. Carriers using Fleet Planner will be able to book loads directly in the platform, and they can also tap into new tools that automate communications.
New additions to the platform include:
Direct Booking: Dispatchers can directly book Transfix loads and backhauls in just a few clicks.
Driver-Led Status Updates: Fleet Planner now provides the ability to automatically prompt drivers for load status updates via mobile text.
Automated Customer Communication: Dispatchers can send automatic, real-time updates to the end customer, allowing carriers to proactively manage expectations with shipping partners.
