Truck drivers are often caught in the middle of communications between shippers and receivers — creating an influx of information that over complicates the job.
Rising transportation costs are hitting more store shelves as shippers and carriers — particularly truckers — pass on to consumers the impact of soaring gas prices and an ongoing capacity crunch.
Shippers and carriers are turning to technology to overcome new supply chain challenges. One process that requires a lot of personnel interaction, and has been specifically targeted for improvement, is the transfer of the bill of lading (BOL).
