Software integration is key to most successful shipper and broker relationships. However the gaps in the integration of two separate companies’ software are quite large. Full integration for a shipper’s entire order processing system flowing through all the way to the carrier’s bill of lading is rare if not impossible to attain. Constant workarounds and manual processes to allow automated processes to work hinder improvements and efficient work processes.
