DAT and Axele Announce Strategic Partnership, Expanded Integration
February 11 2021 - 9:03AM
DAT Freight & Analytics and Axele, LLC today announced an
agreement that expands the integration between Axele’s cloud-based
TMS and DAT’s load board network, establishing each other as
preferred providers and paving the way for new collaborative
product offerings to be brought to market.
As the first step, the two companies will expand the integration
of their load board and TMS technologies, giving small and midsized
truckload carriers easy access to automated freight-matching
features that are typically available only to enterprise carriers.
Next, the companies will bring new offerings to carriers to
automate their day-to-day operations and reduce the manpower needed
to run their businesses.
Axele will become DAT’s preferred TMS provider for truckload
carriers, while DAT will become the preferred load board for
Axele’s TMS. Carriers can connect to the industry’s largest freight
marketplace without ever leaving the Axele TMS, with Axele
recommending loads that increase productivity and generate the best
return based on driver availability, hours of service, deadhead
miles, driver pay, driver preferences and more. Axele also easily
connects with electronic logging devices (ELDs), maps and internal
accounting systems, among other databases.
“With the combined power and intelligence of DAT & Axele,
small and midsized truckload fleets will now have a modern,
connected TMS that can streamline the freight-matching process and
lead to better decisions and greater profitability,” said Claude
Pumila, President & CEO of DAT.
“With Axele and DAT, smaller truckload carriers can benefit from
TMS capabilities enjoyed by only the largest trucking companies,”
said Ravi Ahuja, founder and CEO of Axele. “This agreement creates
a one-stop-shop where carriers can run virtually every aspect of
their business and opens the door for Axele to deliver the latest
optimization technology to DAT’s customers.”
