Chassis Pool & Interchange Management

Chassis is the silent profit leak in drayage. EXSPEEDITE tracks co-op and private pool equipment, calculates daily per diem with gate-verified timestamps, splits invoices between ocean lines and motor carriers, and stores driver interchange receipts so billing teams defend every accessorial dollar.

Chassis Lifecycle on One Load Record

Pool Assignment & Free Time

Select merchant or private pool at booking. Free time tiers apply by terminal tariff and customer contract before per diem accrual begins.

Gate Out Interchange Capture

Mobile TIR/EIR photos stamp pickup time, chassis ID, and seal numbers. OCR assists dispatch validation against booking equipment.

In-Transit & Yard Dwell

CheckPoint geofences track yard pre-pull and street turn candidates. Dwell timers feed Drayage Watch alerts before pool penalties stack.

Split Move Detection

Pickup and return at different pool locations trigger split-move accessorial matrices automatically on the freight bill.

Split-Bill Invoicing

Configure percentage splits between beneficial cargo owner, steamship line, and motor carrier. Separate invoice PDF segments reduce AR disputes.

Return Gate & Per Diem Close

Return interchange stops the daily clock. Accrued days post to customer AR with image evidence and GPS corroboration.
