HOUSTON, July 24, 2023 — PCS, an AI-powered, all-in-one cloud transportation management system used by Shippers and Carriers to seamlessly manage end-to-end business operations, announces its most recent release with enhancements and changes that boost productivity and improve user experience.
Shippers and Carriers using or considering PCS’s powerful platform will be pleased to learn of an exciting new Prime Express feature:
Driver Schedules
Driver schedules are one of the key components used in Prime Express Optimization to ensure drivers are matched to the correct loads. Creating driver schedules in Prime Express reduces the need to manually track and enter schedules on a regular basis. This specifically aids organizations who rely on driver shift work or those that primarily do LTL or local pick-up drivers.
Carriers currently utilizing the PCS Platform will be delighted to learn of the upgraded capability now available with the PCS/Samsara Integration:
Samsara Two-Way Integration (Beta Version)
Customers will now be able to post dispatches to their drivers, directly from the TMS to the Samsara mobile app. Customers no longer have to create a manual route in Samsara. With a click of the button all load info will transmit to the Samsara mobile app for drivers to start the Samsara workflow.
All images from the Samsara mobile app, will now be brought into the TMS. Drivers no longer have to use dual-apps to complete their loads and backup paperwork.
Now, Carriers can create load status updates from Samsara’s geofencing. Customers will also receive load status notifications for the route as the stops get completed.
Supported by numerous enhancements, these new features make the integrated, easy-to-use PCS platform more powerful and effective than ever before:
