In addition, the company soon will be live with Load Analyzer(r), also part of Manhattan Carrier, which will allow C.R. England to respond to load requests and solicit freight based on current and future capacity.
"As fuel costs change in different markets across the country, Driver&Load enables us to adjust our deadhead decision-making based on those fuel cost changes, reducing empty miles," said Ron Hall, director of business strategy for C.R. England. "This year, we've also improved our Scheduled MPH to help eliminate the slack time in our deliveries to customers, through effective use of Manhattan's Drop&Swap utilization tools."
