The integration allows brokers to procure, validate and manage carriers more effectively. In addition, the integration is further powered by Parade's Capacity CoDriver—Parade’s generative AI feature—to address challenges such as quote generation, carrier verification, and manual communication overload.
"Parade's integration with TMW.Suite provides data and technology to transform freight brokerages into digital-first operations,” said Anthony Sutardja, CEO and co-founder of Parade “This digital transformation enables brokers to book loads online with a click, creates a more efficient workforce, and dramatically improves operating margins."
