Carrier Communications

Flow Logistics’ web-based transportation management system, eFlow™, helps shippers to manage and execute advanced transportation strategies. This requires reliable communication methods that can provide on-line, real-time and historical reporting, such as:

• Verification of load tender and acceptance;
• Pick-up and delivery instructions for complex multi-stop loads;
• Confirmation of delivery appointments;
• In-transit load status information for multi-stop and multi-carrier deliveries;
• Updated product shipment status, from your vendors, for inbound collect freight;
• Verification of actual delivery dates and times.

eFlow™ not only facilitates communication through standard EDI transaction sets, but also via other common communication tools, such as fax, e-mail, web-based user interfaces and formatted file transfers.  eFlow™ enables shippers to tailor their communication methods to the technological sophistication of their carriers.
