Pando

Creating and maintain vehicle types in Pando would aid with maintaining information for running freight auctions. With the vehicle master, you can create and maintain a repository of the dimensions, weightage, and other vehicle characteristics that aid in mapping shipments with the right vehicle types and to the right lanes. This helps optimize delivery orders and derive maximum efficiency.
