SONAR launches new routing guide and contract rate data, plus expanded SearchCarriers monitoring
New SONAR datasets show what shippers pay brokers and carriers when freight falls past the first tender, plus SearchCarriers watchlists and alerts.
SONAR has released three new truckload dataset groups that measure what shippers pay their transportation providers — brokers and carriers — as freight moves through a routing guide and as contract rates reset. SONAR also expanded SearchCarriers with carrier watchlists, email alerts, inspection search and equipment lookup by VIN or license plate.
The new data answers a question shippers have long had to estimate on their own: how much more does a load cost when the primary carrier says no?
All three new dataset groups measure shipper-to-provider costs — the rates shippers pay to the brokers and carriers that move their freight. They are not carrier operating costs or broker margins.
Each dataset updates daily using a 7-day rolling average and is available now in SONAR.
