Flock Freight Partners with BluJay Solutions to Offer Non-Contracted FlockDirect® Rates On BluJay’s TMS Platform
Flock Freight’s Shared Truckload Rates Integrated into Leading Cloud-Based Logistics Execution Platform
Flock Freight, the technology company creating a smarter, more sustainable supply chain using patented technology to pool freight at scale, announced its partnership with BluJay Solutions, a subsidiary of e2Open, to more effectively serve large shippers who utilize BluJay’s popular transportation management system (TMS) platform.
Through this integration, BluJay users can now instantly access FlockDirect rates in the TMS platform via an API connection that allows the two software platforms to communicate in real-time. This new functionality will expedite and streamline the process for shippers to book FlockDirect and gain the benefits of Shared Truckload – Flock Freight’s smarter alternative to traditional shipping that finds and fills the empty spaces on trucks to move goods more cost-effectively and sustainably. This proprietary offering ensures shippers’ freight is sent on the most efficient routes and their goods are delivered on-time and damage-free.
“Our partnership with BluJay Solutions helps us meet more shippers where they are and where they want to buy,” said Chris Pickett, Chief Operating Officer at Flock Freight. “Now, anyone who uses BluJay’s TMS platform, whether they’re a new or existing Flock Freight customer, can instantly view and book FlockDirect services. Our goal with this integration is to help shippers of all shapes and sizes discover how Shared Truckload simply outperforms traditional shipping modes in many cases, driving immediate value to their bottom line.”
BluJay customers will now benefit from more dynamic rates and optimized pricing based on the amount of freight they’re shipping. Other features include ease of access to FlockDirect rates requiring minimal set-up time, and shippers now receiving quotes with no wait time for non-contracted rates to prevent them from needing to spend time visiting multiple spot boards or calling to request prices.
Flock customers can still access FlockDirect non-contracted rates via Flock’s native web application or through API and EDI integrations with other major transportation management systems including Project 44, Banyan, Kuebix and more.
