Highway's solution integrated with Turvo's collaborative TMS platform helps users build a more secure carrier network.

SAN MATEO, Calif., March 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Turvo, provider of the world's leading collaboration application designed for the supply chain, today announces a strategic partnership with Highway, a premier technology provider for carrier identity management, to improve transparency and remove friction from carrier onboarding and monitoring processes.

Turvo's modern TMS allows freight brokers and 3PLs to easily connect and collaborate with employees, customers, and carriers across the supply chain. This collaborative framework allows users to more efficiently plan, execute, and settle freight. With Highway integrated, Turvo customers can automate carrier identity management and compliance to reduce risk and streamline operations.

"We are excited to add Highway to our growing partner ecosystem and offer our customers another layer of automation for managing carrier relationships and compliance," said Scott Lang, Chairman and CEO, Turvo. "This integration allows our customers to take advantage of powerful capabilities to reduce fraud, digitize bookings, and ensure a more reliable carrier network."

Brokers and logistics providers sourcing capacity with new carriers face inherent risks. Without an established relationship, they may encounter issues related to the quality of service and on-time performance, or even fraud, double brokering, and similar situations with costly consequences.

"Highway is the only Carrier Identity Engine in the industry, eliminating risk and friction for brokers and carriers. Our engine manages carrier identity, solves fraud and double brokering, and provides brokers with detailed data on carrier equipment. This empowers brokers to source and vet capacity with unprecedented efficiency," said Michael Caney, Chief Commercial Officer, Highway.

Highway helps automate carrier compliance with a framework designed for risk management, supported by enhanced access to public and private data available on all carriers. The added advantage is the ability for freight brokers and 3PLs to increase their equipment visibility and improve carrier utilization for a stronger competitive advantage. Highway gives visibility into scheduled auto data, with in-depth information on carrier lanes, locations, and equipment.

Through Highway and Turvo, customers gain robust capabilities to reduce risk, automate, and streamline carrier management processes. The integration enhances collaboration offering Turvo's users the ability to rapidly scale and accelerate growth.
