LTL Carrier Tracking Integration: Visibility Across All LTL Carriers
A manufacturer connected its LTL carriers’ tracking APIs and brought LTL and private fleet tracking into live visibility. The team built the carrier API connections in 1.5 days, enabling analysis of transit patterns and delivery performance at scale.

Tracking data was scattered across carrier-specific sources
Shipment tracking information came from carrier-specific sources. That made it harder to review shipment status consistently and analyze service patterns across carriers.
The team needed a scalable way to bring tracking data together and compare expected delivery with actual transit performance.
Tracking data becomes more useful when it can be reviewed consistently across carriers and analyzed across shipments.

Simplified illustration of the workflow described in this case study.
API connections to every LTL carrier, built in 1.5 days
The team built API connections for all LTL carriers in 1.5 days and brought LTL and private fleet tracking into live visibility. The connected data supports analysis of shipment status, transit patterns, and expected versus actual delivery at scale.
FTL partner tracking is the next expansion area.
Carrier API connections
Retrieve tracking data directly from LTL carrier sources.
Live tracking across modes
Provide visibility across LTL shipments and the private fleet.
Transit analysis
Review service patterns across shipments at scale.
Expected-versus-actual delivery
Compare planned delivery expectations with actual outcomes.
A stronger foundation for carrier service analysis
Consistent tracking data gives logistics teams a stronger foundation for carrier service analysis and shipment visibility.
- Connects tracking data from all LTL carriers
- Brings LTL and private fleet tracking into live visibility
- Makes shipment transit patterns easier to analyze across loads
- Supports expected-versus-actual delivery analysis
- Creates a foundation for extending tracking to FTL partners
Frequently asked questions
In this project, the team built API connections across all LTL carriers in 1.5 days.
LTL and private fleet tracking were live. FTL partner tracking was identified as the next expansion area.
They can review shipment tracking, transit patterns, and expected versus actual delivery across shipments.
The integration provides visibility and service data for analysis. This case study does not claim that the integration alone improved on-time delivery.
A shared view makes it easier to review shipment status consistently and analyze service performance across carriers.

Private Fleet Dispatch Scheduling: 15 to 3 Minutes per Load
A multi-site manufacturer replaced manual drive-time, hours-of-service and appointment calculations with a scheduling system that calculates the plan and inserts required breaks automatically.
