They can now post their loads to additional groups of carriers who want quality freight to move, all inside the AscendTMS premium system.


Tim Higham, president and CEO of InMotion Global, Inc. said, "Finding quality available carriers is job number one for brokers, 3PL's and shippers.

"With NextLOAD's goal of increasing direct posted loads from brokers, it only made sense to partner with Ascend and offer a free load board for their brokers to post loads."

Higham continued, "AscendTMS is a transportation management system that connects to all proven industry standard tools and services that brokers, shippers and carriers need each day to run their business operations profitably and efficiently. We'll continue to add more requested industry services as demanded by our AscendTMS users."
