Can EXSPEEDITE import LoadMaster rating matrices without manual re-keying?

Yes. EXSPEEDITE implementation engineers map exported tariff tables into dynamic multi-matrix rating with fuel surcharge pegging and accessorial automation.

Will dispatchers lose historical load visibility during migration?

No. Historical orders, documents, and open balances are staged before cutover so billing can close legacy AR while dispatch runs new freight in EXSPEEDITE.

McLeod LoadMaster to EXSPEEDITE Migration Playbook

Freight at the Speed of Now. Strong Tower Consulting, LLC (Minnesota, est. 2008) implementation engineers help carriers export LoadMaster tariffs, settlements, and customer masters into EXSPEEDITE with a proven parallel-run cutover.

Schedule Migration Assessment EXSPEEDITE vs McLeod

Phase 1: Export rating matrices and accessorial rules

Extract customer lane tariffs, minimum charges, stop pay, detention free time, and fuel surcharge tables. EXSPEEDITE maps them into dynamic rating matrices that batch invoice nightly without clerk re-entry.

Phase 2: Driver settlements and escrow

Migrate driver pay profiles including loaded and empty splits, fuel card deductions, escrow balances, and recurring deductions so the first settlement cycle in EXSPEEDITE matches your LoadMaster control totals.

Phase 3: Customer profiles and outside carrier compliance

Import bill-to parties, credit limits, EDI trading partners, and SaferWatch-style carrier vetting fields so brokerage boards stay compliant on day one.

Phase 4: Zero-downtime cutover

Dispatchers tender new loads in EXSPEEDITE while billing closes legacy freight. Weekend cutover retires the LoadMaster SQL footprint after parallel validation passes.
