HaulFox launches TMS platform

Dallas startup targets 3PLs with single-portal access to range of transportation tools.

Logistics software company HaulFox LLC has released a transportation management system (TMS) that enables freight brokers and third-party logistics providers (3PLs) to execute all their day-to-day functions in a single brokerage platform, the company said Tuesday.

Dallas-based HaulFox says its cloud-based platform eliminates the necessity of switching in and out of multiple systems, whether users need capacity checks on load boards, carrier safety information, tracking data, customer relationship management (CRM) links, or external pricing tools.


The new TMS includes HaulFox' Back Haul product, a previous software release from the company that is designed to match up the most advantageous customer/carrier alignment by examining both current available carrier capacity and unawarded customer opportunities.

"One platform to replace them all ... that was our goal," HaulFox founder and COO, Jonathan Drouin, said in a release. "Brokers no longer have to build a load [and] look externally for capacity, or pricing. We've integrated all day-to-day functions into one single platform. It's the TMS you never have to leave."

Automation delivers results for high-end designer

When you get the chance to automate your distribution center, take it.

That's exactly what leaders at interior design house Thibaut Design did when they relocated operations from two New Jersey distribution centers (DCs) into a single facility in Charlotte, North Carolina, in 2019. Moving to an "empty shell of a building," as Thibaut's Michael Fechter describes it, was the perfect time to switch from a manual picking system to an automated one—in this case, one that would be driven by voice-directed technology.
