The Challenge
Show Me Global Logistics, a national broker and logistics provider, was facing the challenge of connecting with shippers who may not be aware of their services. They were also looking for a way to fill available capacity on a spot basis. The company was seeking a solution that would allow them to quickly and easily connect with hundreds of shippers without adding to their headcount and save time finding freight to fill empty assets.
The Solution
Show Me Global Logistics leveraged Kuebix Community Load Match to easily connect with shippers who are looking for truckload spot volume. This built-in spot market feature in Kuebix's Transportation Management System (TMS) allowed Show Me Global Logistics to fill capacity and discover shippers with long-term logistics needs. Any Kuebix TMS user can search for truckload capacity and compare spot quotes in Community Load Match from a vast network including brokers, carriers and freight marketplaces. By posting a load to the community, shippers receive spot quotes and can book and track their shipments directly in the technology.

Case Study
Vehicle Fleet Analytics
Organizations frequently implement a maintenance strategy for their fleets of vehicles using a combination of time and usage based maintenance schedules. While effective as a whole, time and usage based schedules do not take into account driving patterns, environmental factors, and sensors currently deployed within the vehicle measuring crank voltage, ignition voltage, and acceleration, all of which have a significant influence on the overall health of the vehicle.In a typical fleet, a large percentage of road calls are related to electrical failure, with battery failure being a common cause. Battery failures result in unmet service agreement levels and costly re-adjustment of scheduled to provide replacement vehicles. To reduce the impact of unplanned maintenance, the transportation logistics company was interested in a trial of C3 Vehicle Fleet Analytics.
