A combination of the data explosion within the freight industry, tightening of supply chains due to the pandemic, and the resulting economic shock waves have caused an evolution in the freight bill payment industry-a sector that's now being referred to "the Swiss army knife" of freight transportation. The era of simply providing electronic data interchange (EDI) to pay freight bills is clearly over. Today's freight bill payment companies are a diverse group, offering growing services in transportation management systems (TMS) as well as additional benchmarking honed from millions of data collection points. Industry stakeholders contend that the whipsawing effects of the pandemic and the resulting supply chain issues have only emphasized that freight bill payment providers must be as nimble and adaptive as the freight industry they track. |
