Truck Dispatch Software & Operations
Freight at the Speed of Now. Fast Dispatch trip grid, live ELD Hours of Service (HOS) duty clocks, multi-leg splits, zero-click reload assignment, and Brokerage Hot Board on one unified operational record.
The board
Scheduling, assignment, check calls, and a one-click invoice when the load is done. FTL and LTL on the same product.
STATUS is the real trip. BOARD flags are cover language. POST RATE starts at 80% of SS RATE. Profit uses billing minus cost. Map opens CheckPoint when that load was sent.
Fast Dispatch does not go away when you open Brokerage Board. Use it for driver, carrier, PU and DEL dates, and the CheckPoint sent flag.
Interactive workflow
Click each stage to see how Fast Dispatch, Hot Board, and live telemetry stay on one continuous freight record.
EDI 204 or manual order creates the trip skeleton. Tariff matrix and fuel surcharge peg before release.
Live 11-hour drive, 14-hour window, and 70-hour cycle from Samsara, Motive, or Geotab on the assign row.
Asset assign on Fast Dispatch or margin cover on Brokerage Hot Board with 1-click rate con to outside carriers.
ELD breadcrumbs for fleet tractors; CheckPoint SMS browser GPS for brokered drivers. Geofences write check calls.
Mobile POD imaging and accessorial approval must pass billing readiness before nightly invoice batch.
Dispatch accepts shipper tender into a draft load with stops, references, and customer-specific free time. Rate con versions track dispatch edits automatically.
| Capability | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Margin HUD | Real-time bill vs buy, gross dollars, and margin percent per row before cover release. |
| POST RATE engine | Starts near 80% of shipper rate with dispatcher override audit trail. |
| Status semantics | Operational trip status remains source of truth; board flags express cover language only. |
| Carrier Accept | Secure digital rate con with legal accept updating load to Confirmed without email PDF loops. |
| CheckPoint handoff | Map icon opens outside-carrier GPS timeline when tracking link was dispatched. |
| Signal | Source | Dispatch use |
|---|---|---|
| Duty clocks | ELD REST/webhooks (Samsara, Motive, Geotab, RoadReady) | Block assign when insufficient drive or cycle hours. |
| Location breadcrumb | ELD or CheckPoint cellular GPS | ETA, detention start/stop, customer Pipeline map feed. |
| Geofence events | CheckPoint + ELD geofences | Auto arrive/depart check calls on View Load timeline. |
| POD capture | CheckPoint camera upload or mobile com | Billing readiness gate and Pipeline customer download. |
| EDI 214 | Milestone engine on freight record | Status messages to shipper systems when configured. |
Plan the day from truck availability: available, unavailable, or on delivery.
Confirm the dispatch. Place new orders. See equipment, carrier, and driver options, including call-ins.
Automatic check-call notifications. Arrive and depart in a few clicks. Next driver activity stays at the top of the sort.
When the load is done, generate the invoice without rebuilding the file.
Real-time visibility into driver turn-time, active duty status, equipment assigned, and next scheduled activity at the top of the board.
Manage dock doors, stage inbound freight, monitor dwell-time aging, and coordinate cross-dock reloads for 3PL and LTL terminals.
Sequenced multi-stop metro delivery routes, local cartage manifests, and zone-based P&D dispatching.
Hand off freight seamlessly between regional terminal offices without rekeying shipments, maintaining separate branch P&L and restricting staff to permitted offices.
Whether running point-to-point truckload, multi-stop LTL with separate customer paperwork, or cross-dock transfer hubs, dispatchers work from a unified record. Integrated PC*Miler and Google distance calculations ensure accurate routing and fuel estimates on every leg.
Dispatchers benefit from rapid sorting and filtering features that prioritize the next driver’s activity directly at the top of the operational board.
Mobile dispatch software connects dispatchers with drivers and outside carriers in real time. It enables sub-second trip assignment, electronic load tenders, live GPS check calls, in-cab messaging, and instant POD uploads.
Fast Dispatch is the core operational trip list for tracking company equipment, drivers, pickup/delivery dates, and check calls. The Brokerage Board (Hot Board) is a dense margin-focused grid built for selling non-asset loads to outside carriers.
EXSPEEDITE natively supports multi-leg trip splits, cross-dock floor transfers, and drop-and-hook relays without creating orphaned shipments or scrambling driver settlements. Dispatchers can split legs between regional relay drivers, local cartage, and linehaul power units in a single click.
Protect fleet margins by auditing circuitous driver miles and pre-validating 11-hour driving and 14-hour on-duty clocks prior to dispatch assignment.

Plan your evaluation
Choose a checkpoint to shape your walkthrough. This is an evaluation guide, not a live product session or customer performance result.
Review pickup and delivery appointments alongside the driver, tractor, and trailer.
What to verify: Check the duty-clock information available from the configured ELD integration before assigning a load.
Discuss a driver change, relay leg, or drop-and-hook scenario.
What to verify: Ask which details carry forward and who sees the revised assignment.
Review the delivery milestone and document collection.
What to verify: Verify the distinction between movement completion and readiness to invoice.
Use these existing resources to prepare questions, then verify the configured workflow with your team.
Bring a redacted example showing the legs, equipment changes, appointments, and pay rules. Ask the presenter to trace assignments and the downstream settlement and billing records.
Ask how the dispatcher identifies missing or stale information and what manual review is required. Software information supports planning; it does not replace the carrier’s responsibility for safe and compliant dispatch.
A dispatch assignment is one stage of a connected freight operating workflow. Review how the movement, documents, approved charges, and accounting handoff fit together when evaluating the wider platform.
