Shipping Exchanges operating without unifying consensus standards for Shippers, Carriers and Brokers = Chaos
Transport Unit IDentifiers (TUIDs) bring order to disorder!
Logistics providers deliver siloed visibility and transparency as table stakes within their own platform. The key to sustaining a Digital Future is the accreditation of the freight ecosystem with Standards and communications protocols.

As the logistics marketplace reacts to market influences in the digital ecosystem, the key definition in this transformation must unlock visibility and transparency for shippers, carriers and brokers alike.
By utilizing the power of information and deep understanding of transactions, real visibility is available at every point.
True connectedness and real interoperability come from clarity achieved through agreed upon openness and protected sharing of anonymized data throughout the life of the “load”.
Before a load is built and the carrier is booked (1), industry participants often engage in complex negotiations to match loads and carriers. These may encompass familiar and new parties across the industry, especially if the shipper elects to explore the spot market (2). The negotiation phase relies predominantly on human-centric procedures and systems.
Together, Shipping Exchanges can eliminate waste and unnecessary costs of Phantom data.
Shipping Exchanges have the power to adopt industry-redefining Standards!
