Maximize Profitability

Pricing and Order Management Solutions

Protecting your profit margins starts with accurate pricing, bidding, and efficient order management. McLeod offers transport management system (TMS) tools backed by real-world data to manage bids, streamline order workflows, analyze profitability, and strengthen customer relationships.

How McLeod Empowers Smarter Pricing, Bidding, and Order Management

Leverage McLeod’s tools to accelerate bidding, reduce manual work and improve efficiency with these features:

Contract Rate Automation

Set freight rates and charges by customer or location in advance. When entering an order, Auto Rating automatically applies the correct rate by matching key parameters in the database to save time and reduce errors.

Quick Quote and Order Capture

Quickly enter and share accurate quotes by origin and destination, track past quotes and generate orders based on current quotes. This tool automatically logs each quote and schedules follow-ups.

The Customer Portal provides secure 24/7 self-service for each client to request quotes, check order status and submit new quotes or orders. The portal also automatically schedules recurring orders.

Short Haul

Drivers can submit short-haul ticket data and capture load images directly from a mobile device or tablet using the McLeod Logix Anywhere mobile app. The app automatically sends verified information for creating and delivering orders.

Customer Service

McLeod’s Customer Service view brings Asset and Brokered moves into one convenient dashboard. CSRs can search by Order number, BOL, or reference number to quickly locate loads and manage exceptions. Track late shipments, service failures, missing paperwork, and billing status—all from a single view designed to keep your team proactive and your customers satisfied.

Target and Max Pay Logic

Target rates help brokers determine the rate to offer a carrier, based on setup within the TMS. For customers using MPact, the system provides current market data to compare rates and ensure competitiveness.

Real-Time Market Pricing

MPact.Rate gives you access to freight rate data, including Rate Trends, Rate Analysis, and Order Trends, collected daily from over 1,000 McLeod customers through Market Insight. It delivers current rate trends and analytics and is free if you contribute anonymously.

Bid and Rate Optimization

Accelerate the bidding process with automated bid management. Import shipper bid packages, analyze opportunities against history and market rates and track awarded lanes to improve efficiency and profitability.

Shipment Consolidation and Manifesting

Maximize trailer capacity and simplify partial shipment management by consolidating shipments. The Partial Shipment module allows for flexible cross-docking, order adjustments and rerouting within a manifest. The customizable planning screen provides a quick view of order information in a selected manifest.

Multicurrency Accounting

Process transactions in multiple currencies and manage tax requirements. Track currency at the field level with automatic conversions and tools for tax calculations and conversions.

Ensure Safety and Compliance

Our trucking management system for truckload carriers organizes and manages driver information, documents and safety-related activities — including accident records, claims and remediation plans. Identify when and where incidents occur, spot trends and use that insight to create targeted strategies for improvement and compliance.
