TQL Embraces Ascend's TMS Platform For The SMB Carriers That Serve Their Network

AscendTMS Partners with Total Quality Logistics

Tampa, FL, November 24, 2021 – InMotion Global, Inc., maker of AscendTMS, the world’s #1 rated and most popular TMS software, and Total Quality Logistics (“TQL”), one of the largest freight brokerage and third-party logistics firms in North America, today announced the launch of TQL on the AscendTMS platform.

Through the partnership, AscendTMS will be offered to TQL carriers at no charge. The platform allows them to access a digital ecosystem in real-time, based on their truck’s location and destination, without using external load boards.


“Carriers want to keep their drivers constantly moving by getting perfectly-matched loads,” said Tim Higham, President and CEO of AscendTMS. “Carriers using AscendTMS will love this real-time integration with TQL because AscendTMS is saying to them ‘here’s a perfectly matched live load for your driver when they empty the current load they’re on’. It’s fast, and efficient.”

Australian supermarket chain rolls out AI-powered grocery carts

Grocery shoppers in Australia will soon be able to zip in and out of the store in record time, bypassing the lines for cashiers or self-checkout kiosks altogether. They can just walk in, make their selections, and walk out with their bags in hand.

The secret to this express shopping experience is the “Caper Cart,” an AI (artificial intelligence)-powered smart trolley from San Francisco-based Instacart. In its first deployment in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region, the system is being tested by Coles Supermarkets, a food and beverage retailer with more than 1,800 grocery and liquor stores throughout the country.
