Logistics Management Automation (LMA) Heavy Freight Shipping Feature
The Agistix Logistics Management Automation (LMA) Heavy Freight Shipping feature is designed for any freight shipment by air, land, or sea. Spot Quotes (ad-hoc bids) can be requested for full or less-than-truckload (TL or LTL) shipments using flatbed trucks or specialized trailers; domestic and international airfreight shipments; and full or less-than-container load (LCL) shipments by ocean freight.
User permissions in the Agistix Logistics Management Automation (LMA) software are customized by your designated system administrator along with allowable delivery options, and preferred heavy freight carriers. These settings are then automatically enforced for each assigned user. When a heavy freight shipment needs to go out for bid, the authorized user goes online to access the Agistix heavy freight shipping application, completes a pre-formatted shipment outline with such details as pickup and delivery requirements, any special requirements and bid receipt deadline. Your bid first goes out to the heavy freight carriers you pre-selected from our base of pre-qualified freight carriers - all of whom must compete to win the job by entering their pricing and service bid into the Agistix system prior to the specified deadline. These competitive, real-time multi-carrier comparisons ensure that you get the maximum value for every heavy freight shipment, regardless of mode, origin, destination, or size.
