Read the Transcript:

Here at NEXT, we put a heavy emphasis on optimizing our carrier capacity utilization. With this focus, we can move more customer loads while minimizing the unwanted accessorials like stop offs and bobtails that come with imbalances of managing multiple loaded and empty containers shipments.

To simplify drayage operations, ATLAS, our Advanced Trucking & Logistics Automation System, automates the scheduling of appointments at marine terminals and warehouses and uses smart route matching logic to efficiently bundle loads across all of our import and export customers.

With these high-quality dual transaction and roundtrip jobs, ATLAS then intelligently matches them with the most qualified trucking company or independent owner operator to maximize their earning potential. By optimizing a driver’s day, we help them increase the number of loads they can complete, driving accelerated on-time deliveries and excellent service to our customers.

If you’d like to learn more about how we leverage automated technology to maximize on-time delivery of your containers, let us know. We’d be happy to make you NEXT.
