What’s not included: EDI integration and API integration

Overview: The Web Connect+ level in e2open Carrier Marketplace includes the same world-class web portal UI that carriers connected to the e2open Transportation Management for shippers application have always enjoyed. This level is available for carriers who are connected within the e2open transportation ecosystem but do not require integration via EDI or API.

Carriers selecting Web Connect+ also receive the Basic 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.

Certified Carriers will be 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.

Carriers enrolled in Web Connect+ also receive a “Member of e2open Carrier Marketplace” logo graphic that can be displayed on their website.

Carriers at this level receive many program benefits but do not take advantage of the tight system integration via EDI and/or API connections that enables more efficient and robust communication with shipper customers.
