Xata Corporation’s Xata Turnpike fleet management  software is now integrated with TMWSuite transportation management software  from TMW Systems.

  This integration combines both driver and fleet  management tools into one. It provides fleets all the functions and services  for the end-to-end transportation process, and is scalable for a range of  customers, from regional brokers and 3PLs to national carriers with fleets  ranging from 50 to 15,000.

  The integrated system combines driver and fleet  management tools to drive efficiency and productivity throughout the process.  Powered by Xata Turnpike’s GPS data, TMWSuite can detect site arrival and  departure events and update loads in Dispatch without manual intervention.  Eliminating manual data entry by dispatchers based on check calls from drivers  saves time for both drivers and dispatchers, and improves data accuracy.

  Xata Turnpike’s hours-of-service data also assists  dispatchers with load planning by organizing driver availability based on  available hours. When a dispatcher is planning a load, they can quickly  determine which drivers are available, maximizing productivity.

  The integrated system provides additional convenience to  planners and dispatchers by showing important information—remaining driver  hours, stop arrivals, and load completions—and controlling all dispatch  activities from one screen. It also speeds billing and payroll processes by  automating manual processes with Xata Turnpike data integration.
