Joe McDevitt • March 28, 2025

Smarter Carrier Management with Built-In Logic

Managing carriers can be complex, but ViewPoint TMS makes it simple. Our system has built-in intelligence that sorts carriers by the least cost provider, ensuring you always get the best rate. No more guessing or manual comparisons—our technology does it instantly.


Beyond cost savings, our dynamic rating engine evaluates multiple factors in real time. It considers rates, transit times, and service levels, giving you a complete picture before making a decision. This automation streamlines your shipping process and eliminates inefficiencies.


ViewPoint TMS doesn’t just stop at selecting carriers. It also enforces your business rules, ensuring every shipment follows the best strategy. Whether prioritizing cost, speed, or reliability, our system automatically aligns with your needs.

Carrier Scorecards for Performance Monitoring

Not all carriers perform equally, and ViewPoint TMS tracks their performance for you. Our carrier scorecards measure key factors like on-time delivery, claim rates, and overall reliability. With real-time insights, you can make data-driven decisions about which carriers to trust.


These scorecards help shippers maintain high service levels. If a carrier consistently misses deadlines or has excessive damage claims, our system flags the issue. This allows you to hold carriers accountable and maintain high shipping standards.



By using performance metrics, you gain a competitive edge. You can reward top-performing carriers and adjust partnerships based on real data. This proactive approach leads to better relationships and improved service levels.

Dynamic Rating Engine for Smarter Decisions

Carrier management

ViewPoint TMS features a powerful dynamic rating engine that evaluates carriers instantly. It compares contracted rates, spot market pricing, and service levels in real time. This ensures you always choose the best carrier for each shipment.


The system takes into account not just cost but also transit times and carrier reliability. This means you can prioritize faster shipping when needed or optimize for savings when speed isn’t critical.


Instead of relying on outdated pricing or manual rate comparisons, ViewPoint TMS continuously updates rates and availability. This ensures you always make informed decisions backed by the latest data.

Freight Audit and Automated Compliance

Billing errors and overcharges happen more often than shippers realize. ViewPoint TMS includes a freight audit tool that automatically verifies invoices against contracted rates. This helps catch discrepancies before they become costly mistakes.


Our system also ensures compliance with your shipping rules. It prevents costly errors by flagging shipments that don’t meet your business policies. This protects you from unnecessary expenses and improves overall efficiency. We take the step to mitigate these billing discrepancies with the motor carrier on your behalf.


With automated freight auditing, your finance team saves time and eliminates disputes. Every invoice is checked, verified, and processed accurately—ensuring you only pay what you should.
