Lessons from the field: How Appointment Automation is Streamlining Dispatch Operations & Reducing Per Diem Charges. Booking appointments can often be a tedious and time-consuming task, especially for staff operating an asset-based drayage trucking company. Traditional methods of coordinating schedules, making calls, and manual entry can result in inefficiencies and human errors. This webinar aims to demonstrate why a Transportation Management System (TMS) integrated with Appointment Booking features is essential for modern-day drayage operations. Join PortPro’s Vice President of Operations, Walker Banks, as he shares real stories showcasing how Appointment Automation has streamlined dispatch operations, reduced per diem charges, and greatly improved customer experiences.
