Delivering real-time tracking and status information on drivers and loads, the Visibility tool eliminates the need for check calls to determine physical location of fleets and goods moving across the supply chain. Small fleets and owner/operators can easily offer their load sources – which include freight brokers, commercial shippers, and all shipment stakeholders – automated, real-time status updates that are more convenient, seamless, and add value to the logistics management process. “By partnering with 10-4 Systems, we’re tapping into proven applications and technologies for the transportation industry,” said Hussein Yahfoufi, eCapital’s Vice President for Technology and Products. “Empowering visibility across the transportation lifecycle not only aligns well with eCapital’s focus on helping carriers run a better business, but also supports our commitment to making things simple for our clients. Automated, real-time tracking capabilities are typically only available in ‘full featured’ transportation and fleet management systems (TMS). The Visibility tool, offered for free, is embedded within our portal and doesn’t even require a separate login. Today, our small fleet clients can differentiate themselves, competing more effectively through smarter processes and better customer service.” “As logistics becomes increasingly data driven, it’s smart business to capitalize on partnerships and peer expertise. Working with eCapital, we’re enabling visibility as a smart new feature in their digital toolset for streamlined operations and fast payment,” said Sean Kelly, Director of Product Management, 10-4 Systems. “Small fleets now have access to a full range of modern business tools – including transparency into the lifecycle of each shipment without a costly TMS commitment.” The eCapital Visibility tool is part of eCapital Connect, the company’s suite of digital tools designed to help clients efficiently manage, fund, and grow transportation businesses.
