Whether you are using your own drivers or third-party-carriers, Allotrac’s TMS provides access to vehicle location and data, giving you and the customer the ability to track deliveries in real-time, giving complete visibility. This allows you to better manage jobs and allocate based on the driver’s location and work hours. Your business can make adjustments promptly to develop a more efficient delivery schedule, ensuring your customers receive their delivery on time.
