Overview: The LTLConnect subscription provides carriers with access to the world-class e2open Transportation Management for Shippers application through the web portal UI as well as integration via EDI and available APIs to drive efficiency for carriers who are connected to multiple shippers within the e2open transportation ecosystem.

The APIs allow a deeper level of systems integration and can enable enhanced services such as Real-Time Rating, Spot Market automation, and automated Document Uploads and Rate-change Requests.

Carriers selecting LTLConnect also receive the Advanced Carrier Scorecard on a quarterly basis. This first-of-its-kind program enables carriers to see their performance across all the shippers they service. The scorecard measures a wide range of KPIs, including On-Time Delivery, Tender Acceptance, Performance variance as compared to the e2open Road Freight Market Index, and more.

Performance on the Carrier Scorecard can also qualify a carrier for the Certified Carrier Program in the e2open transportation ecosystem. There are three levels of certification—Silver, Gold, and Platinum—to distinguish the highest-performing carriers. For the first time, e2open is putting data at the center of what has traditionally been an emotional or anecdotal decision for shippers.

LTLConnect subscribers are also eligible for Procurement Discovery, a program designed to allow shippers to connect to high-performing carriers within the e2open network. Shippers will also have the ability to filter according to specific carrier profile attributes to narrow down potential invitees to procurement events. The combination of performance-driven certification and profile filtering will provide shippers with more straightforward criteria for inviting carriers of interest to events while giving high-performing carriers an opportunity to be invited more often and receive more awards than in the past.
