SMC³ LTL APIs

Digitize LTL Shipments with SMC³ LTL APIs

Automate the shipment lifecycle with freight transportation visibility solutions

SMC³’s API solutions allow freight transportation stakeholders to digitize the LTL shipment lifecycle from quote to delivery. Whether via seamless integration to an existing transportation management system or the SMC³ cloud-based LTL GO application, shippers and 3PLs can:

  • Receive LTL quotes for volume, contract, broker and dynamic pricing and transit schedules from multiple carriers
  • Use Electronic Bill of Lading (eBOL) to digitally transmit shipping information to carriers quickly and securely
  • Self-assign PRO numbers prior to pick-up
  • Digitally schedule pickups and receive immediate confirmation
  • Monitor shipments via real-time messaging
  • View and download documents including bills of lading, weight & inspection certification, proof of delivery, and invoices

Leading TMS providers like MercuryGate, Oracle and BlueYonder partner with SMC³ to provide their customers with unmatched LTL freight shipment expertise.

Don’t have a TMS? No problem. With LTL GO, shippers and 3PLs can access shipment visibility and document retrieval capabilities in an easy-to-use web application. LTL GO users can connect to numerous carriers to obtain price quotes, schedule pickups, check shipment statuses, and receive digital shipment documents using a single online solution.
