Carrier TMS Software for Truckload Fleet Operations

EXSPEEDITE carrier TMS software connects full truckload dispatch, tractor and trailer assignments, ELD Hours of Service information, freight rating, driver settlements, and invoicing. Keep the operating load and the financial record connected from tender to delivery.

Buyer workflow checklist

Evaluate a carrier TMS from tender to driver settlement

Asset-based trucking companies need more than a list of loads. Dispatchers need the right equipment and driver for the appointment, while payroll and billing need the mileage, charges, and delivery documents associated with that movement. Use one representative FTL lane to test the complete workflow.

Plan and dispatch the movement

Review equipment availability, pickup and delivery appointments, loaded and empty legs, and the driver duty-clock information available through your configured ELD integration.

Rate the load consistently

Apply the customer tariff, fuel surcharge, stop pay, and detention rules. Compare the customer invoice with the driver pay basis so each team can explain the charges.

Close the operating cycle

Walk through proof-of-delivery collection, driver advances and deductions, settlement review, and the accounting export. Ask which exceptions require a person before posting.

From dispatch to the books

Enter dispatch in EXSPEEDITE, then send the finished invoice to QuickBooks or Sage, including line items, client lists, and expenses. Drivers and carriers travel with that same integration. Data can move through custom mapping to carriers, shippers, and consignees as EDI documents.

EDI the truckload desk uses

204 inbound is an electronic order from a shipper. EXSPEEDITE receives translated 204 files and creates pending orders. Accept, decline, or open details in the EDI grid. The software writes 990s from those decisions. 204 outbound sends shipments to your carrier. 997 acknowledges each transaction. 214 reports status with dates, times, locations, route, and reference numbers.

Rating and onboarding

Carrier onboarding and due diligence sit in one system. Client auto rate ties the rating rules together: per mile, fuel surcharge, per pallet, loaded and unloading detention, handling, shipper-to-consignee freight, state-to-state flats, and extra charges that should hit the invoice without retyping.

Modules truckload offices turn on

Carrier, brokerage options when you cover overflow, container and chassis with late rental charges, pallet tracking, shipment auto-save, flatbed and oversize alerts, freight CRM, driver pay statements, and fuel cards that populate fuel per state and per tractor.

Frequently Asked Questions: Carrier TMS & Truckload Software

What is a carrier TMS?

A carrier TMS (Transportation Management System) is specialized software built for asset-based trucking companies to manage fleet dispatch, equipment tracking, live ELD Hours of Service, driver payroll settlements, dynamic freight rating, and touchless customer invoicing.

How does EXSPEEDITE TMS manage Full Truckload (FTL) linehaul dispatch?

EXSPEEDITE provides a high-speed dispatch grid with live Samsara and Motive ELD duty clocks, multi-stop routing, automated reload assignments to eliminate empty miles, and integrated check-call milestones.

How does the system automate driver settlements and pay statements?

The driver settlement module calculates mileage splits (loaded vs empty), percentage pay, stop-off accessorials, and detention fees, while automatically deducting fuel card advances, recurring escrow, and truck lease payments.

Can carriers manage both company drivers and owner-operators in one TMS?

Yes. EXSPEEDITE provides segregated pay profiles, 1099 settlement vouchers, and dedicated deduction schedules for owner-operators alongside W-2 hourly and mileage payroll records for company drivers.
