Dispatch and trip planning
Assign the day in one pass. Loads into trips, trips to drivers, planned once on one board with a record of every change.
A seat above the noise.
Every truck on one map. Every load on one board. Carrier Companion is the view from above the dispatch floor, where you can see the whole day before it comes to you.
The whiteboard goes back to being a whiteboard.
Most fleets run on a whiteboard, a handful of spreadsheets, a shared calendar and whatever the ops manager keeps in their head. Some run all of that on top of a system that was supposed to replace it. It works, as long as the one person who knows it all is at their desk. Carrier Companion puts the map, the board, the loads and trips, the drivers and equipment, the customers, documents, rates and invoices in one place.
Fewer tabs. Fewer spreadsheets. Fewer things only one person knows.

Nothing out of view.
One platform for the people who run the fleet.
Live tracking
Know before it's asked. Where's the truck, when it delivers, whether the POD came in. The answer is on the screen when the customer calls, so the call is short.
Quote to invoice
From the quote to the invoice. Rates set ahead of time, truckload or LTL. The POD lands on the load. The invoice goes out from the same record, and driver pay settles from it too.
Driver app
One app in the cab. What the driver marks on his phone shows up on your board. Pickups, deliveries, photos, signed PODs.
Integrations
The tools you already run, connected. ELDs, fuel cards, tracking, your customers' EDI. Set up your way, all in the platform.
A full day. Seen from up here.
6:40 a.m.
The questions hit before the coffee does. Where's the truck? Who's got Memphis? Did the POD come in? You answer from up here now.
11:00 a.m.
A broker wants a price. The rate was set weeks ago, truckload or LTL, so the load lands on your board already priced.
3:20 p.m.
Asset 5 delivers. The POD is on the load before anyone asks you for it. The invoice goes out behind it.
4:40 p.m.
You lean back. The whiteboard is empty.

Built for fleets, only.
Many platforms try to run a brokerage and a fleet in one product. Carrier Companion does one job: the asset side. It was designed as its own platform and connects to broker systems only where data needs to move. If you run a brokerage too, the same team builds BrokerWare for that, and the two talk to each other.

Twenty years in the building.
Carrier Companion is a new product from 3PL Systems, a team that has built transportation software for brokers for twenty years. It exists because their customers who also run trucks kept asking for a version built for the asset side. Those customers helped shape it.

Change can be painful. We planned for it.
Maybe the fleet runs on a whiteboard and a spreadsheet. Maybe it runs on a system that has been in the office longer than most of the drivers. Either way, what you do today has worked up to this point, and the week in between is the part that has to go right. So it's the part we take most seriously. A small team that answers quickly, with no layers of approval in the way. A platform you set up yourself, in the interface, not through a vendor ticket. Your customers, drivers, equipment and rates carried over, with an audit trail behind everything from day one.

FAQ.
What is Carrier Companion? +
A transportation management system for asset-based fleets, five trucks and up. It's built for the office side: dispatch, office managers, coordinators, planners. The map, the board, the loads and trips, drivers and equipment, customers, documents, rates and invoices, in one place.
What size fleets does it support? +
From 5 trucks to 500 trucks. Carrier Companion is built to help you manage growth and simplify operations regardless of size.
We already run a TMS. Why would we switch? +
Most fleets that talk to us do. The question is what the office does around it: the spreadsheets, the whiteboard, the report only one person can pull. If that list is long, that's the conversation worth having.
Is this another AI platform? +
No. Where it helps, the platform is automated: matching available trucks to unassigned loads and pricing the match from your own rates.
We run a brokerage too. +
Each division on its own tool. The brokerage on BrokerWare, the fleet on Carrier Companion, connected where the data has to move. Same team builds both.
How is it priced? +
By the trip, not by the seat. Add people to the office without adding to the bill. We'll walk through the numbers on the first call.
Who built it? +
3PL Systems, a team that has built transportation software for brokers for twenty years. Their customers who also run trucks asked for a version built for the asset side, and helped shape it.
