For Consultants

You decide what the carriers see and when they see it. You decide (with input from your client) what RFI questions to ask. You set deadlines, arrange events, decide what to communicate to carriers and when to communicate it. Managing lists of carriers is powerful and easy in BidToolsTM screens.

Everything is accessed via secure HTTPS web screens -- accessible anywhere you can get a WiFi signal. Upload and download bidding, RFI, and other submissions easily by private FTP portals accessible only by you.

Exploit synergies between your skill-set and your clients' understanding of their business with powerful optimization technology that allows you to test "what-ifs" as you work toward a final award plan.

Set up dozens of scenarios quickly -- set constraints at Enterprise, Company, Division, Location, Mode, and Lane levels. Set pricing, carrier usage, policy and RFI-driven carrier filter constraints. Let our high powered servers crunch through the optimizations.

Spend a couple of hours training our transportation-savvy support staff in the specifics of your project. Then let our team field questions from scores or hundreds of carriers. We also screen and evaluate carrier document submittals to help you ensure that all requirements are met.

And, our support team members are skilled in understanding where they don't have complete answers. In those cases they use BidToolsTM powerful issue management capabilities to escalate the problem to the consulting team for resolution.

Of course, you always have access to the issue logs and activity reports, so you have continuous visibility to all carrier support activities.

Focus on your high-value-added contribution to the project, not mundate carrier support, by using our optional Carrier Support package.
