Transflo Integrates SMC³ Data for Faster LTL Billing
Companies Say Technology Targets Manual Audits and Billing Cycle Delays
Transflo has integrated SMC³’s execution and visibility data into its AI-driven invoice audit and dispute resolution platform, a move the companies said is intended to speed less-than-truckload billing while reducing errors and payment delays in freight pay workflows.
The companies made the announcement April 14.
The integration combines Transflo’s automation technology with SMC³’s LTL data and carrier connectivity. The companies said the platform is designed to reduce billing complexity, improve accuracy and shorten the time required to identify and resolve invoice disputes for shippers, logistics service providers and carriers.
“SMC³ has spent nine decades building unrivaled LTL data and carrier connectivity, making them the ideal partner as we continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible in LTL freight automation,” said Jay Tomasello, chief technology officer of Transflo. “Together, we’re driving a smarter, faster supply chain experience.”
Company executives said the technology targets long-standing challenges in LTL transportation, including manual audit processes and dispute resolution delays that can slow billing cycles and postpone payment.
Armstrong Transport Group cited operational benefits from using the platform. “Workflow AI for LTL drives automation, reduces costs and accelerates billing cycles — helping us get paid faster,” said Dave Morris, Armstrong’s chief financial officer. “Now, we see and resolve disputes the same day, before they delay payment.”
Armstrong ranks No. 55 on the Transport Topics Top 100 list of the largest logistics companies in North America.
Brian Thompson, chief commercial officer at SMC³, said the partnership is focused on simplifying carrier connectivity while scaling freight pay and audit processes within the LTL sector.
