Description

Freight Hound is an advanced web-based tool designed for professionals that utilizes images and a refined database to provide comprehensive access to all OS&D freight available at each dock within your system. When shortages occur, they are addressed promptly and effectively, often while customers remain on the line. The platform simplifies the retrieval process through an instant keyword search feature. It evaluates all instances of over-freight in your network, delivering the most relevant results accompanied by images and thorough descriptions. Employees can quickly locate misplaced freight using straightforward keyword searches, enhancing efficiency even during live customer interactions. Additionally, more detailed search functionalities allow staff to fine-tune their queries by various parameters such as time frame, category, identification numbers, and details related to the origin trailer. For example, an OS&D clerk may easily search for all overfreight recorded within the last five days from any trailer that came from Chicago, streamlining the management of freight logistics. This capability ensures that operations run smoothly and that customer satisfaction remains high.
