  PORTLAND, Ore., and DALLAS, Tex. Feb. 11, 2020 —DAT Freight & Analytics and Axele, LLC today announced an agreement that expands the integration between Axele’s cloud-based TMS and DAT’s load board network, establishing each other as preferred providers and paving the way for new collaborative product offerings to be brought to market.

  As the first step, the two companies will expand the integration of their load board and TMS technologies, giving small and midsized truckload carriers easy access to automated freight-matching features that are typically available only to enterprise carriers. Next, the companies will bring new offerings to carriers to automate their day-to-day operations and reduce the manpower needed to run their businesses.

  Axele will become DAT’s preferred TMS provider for truckload carriers, while DAT will become the preferred load board for Axele’s TMS. Carriers can connect to the industry’s largest freight marketplace without ever leaving the Axele TMS, with Axele recommending loads that increase productivity and generate the best return based on driver availability, hours of service, deadhead miles, driver pay, driver preferences and more. Axele also easily connects with electronic logging devices (ELDs), maps and internal accounting systems, among other databases.

  “With the combined power and intelligence of DAT & Axele, small and midsized truckload fleets will now have a modern, connected TMS that can streamline the freight-matching process and lead to better decisions and greater profitability,” said Claude Pumila, President & CEO of DAT.

  “With Axele and DAT, smaller truckload carriers can benefit from TMS capabilities enjoyed by only the largest trucking companies,” said Ravi Ahuja, founder and CEO of Axele. “This agreement creates a one-stop-shop where carriers can run virtually every aspect of their business, and opens the door for Axele to deliver the latest optimization technology to DAT’s customers.”

• Axele Announces Partnership with Apex Capital (May 11, 2021)

  Dallas, TX—April 28, 2021—Axele, LLC, a Transportation Management System (TMS) company, announces a strategic partnership with Apex Capital, where the Axele TMS will be integrated with Apex Capital’s freight factoring solution. By integrating factoring into the TMS, small to medium-sized carriers can improve cash flow and save time with accounting processes.

  “Small to midsized carriers often work with tight margins; factoring will help them to maintain a consistent cash flow with quicker payments allowing the carriers to haul more loads,” said Ryan Camacho, Director of Strategy and Business Development, Axele, LLC. “This partnership means our customers will be able to grow their businesses faster.”

  Axele’s new integration with Apex Capital means that carriers using Axele can connect directly to their Apex Capital accounts without ever leaving the TMS. This connection allows carriers to sync Axele/Apex customers with one click, shoot invoice details and supporting documents to the Apex billing portal in seconds, create Apex invoices populated with all the relevant information automatically, and display invoice status as you go. 

  Axele will display an invoice status, sent date, and time to inform the user that the invoice was created successfully. Once the invoice is sent, users can log into their Apex billing portal to submit the created invoices. Faster payment in minutes rather than weeks means trucking businesses can keep the cash flowing and the company rolling.

  “The Axele TMS helps trucking companies find the most profitable load – and now they can get paid for that load faster with the Apex Capital integration,” adds Camacho.

  “We’re excited to partner with Axele to help our mutual clients run their businesses smarter and more efficiently,” said Josh Lambert, Director of Product Delivery, Apex Capital.  “This integration is slick, and passing factoring information so effortlessly between the TMS and Apex benefits everyone involved.”
