SOLUTIONS FOR BROKERS
Coordinate coverage with a clearer view of the shipment.
Broker Desk gives broker teams a place to organize freight requests, carrier coordination, communication and documents. Harper supports the coordination work around your shipments so your team can spend less time chasing scattered information.
01 / SERVICE BENEFITStart with a complete freight request
Incomplete load details often lead to repeated questions before a carrier can assess the shipment.
How Harper helps
Keep the lane, equipment needs, shipment details and pickup and delivery requirements together in the freight workflow.
Why it matters for your team
Your team can communicate the request more consistently and reduce avoidable back-and-forth.
02 / SERVICE BENEFITCoordinate with approved carrier capacity
Finding a possible truck is only one part of covering a load. Fit, availability and onboarding status also matter.
How Harper helps
Use carrier and shipment information to coordinate opportunities with approved participants in the Harper network. Confirm availability and shipment requirements with the parties involved.
Why it matters for your team
You get an organized basis for discussing coverage. A listed opportunity or carrier record is not a guarantee that capacity is available or a booking is confirmed.
03 / SERVICE BENEFITKeep assignments and updates in context
A pickup change can create confusion when it is disconnected from the load record.
How Harper helps
Keep assignments, messages and operational notes connected to the shipment, and record milestones as updates become available.
Why it matters for your team
Your team can see the latest recorded information and follow up on the right issue instead of searching multiple conversations.
04 / SERVICE BENEFITSupport clearer shipper communication
Customers need useful answers when an appointment changes or delivery paperwork is still outstanding.
How Harper helps
Review the shipment record and recorded updates before communicating with your customer. Use the same operational context across team handoffs.
Why it matters for your team
You can give more consistent updates and identify where another confirmation is needed. Visibility depends on the information participants provide.
05 / SERVICE BENEFITClose shipments with organized documents
The work does not stop when the truck arrives at delivery.
How Harper helps
Keep rate confirmations and available shipment documents together, track outstanding items and prepare records for your established billing process.
Why it matters for your team
A shared record makes it easier to find supporting documents and follow up on missing paperwork without restarting the search.
LESS ROUTINE WORK
Let Harper handle more of the routine work.
Harper combines dispatch support with automated workflows to reduce the steps your team has to repeat. Once the required information is entered and the workflow is configured, the system can handle parts of onboarding, account setup and status processing in the background.
- Onboarding checks: configured carrier screening checks submitted information and flags items for review.
- Invitation workflow: after approval, the system can prepare an account invitation and guide the applicant through activation.
- Connected records: shipment information, messages and documents stay organized around the work they relate to.
Your team stays in control of load selection, booking decisions, approvals and the information it supplies. Automation supports those decisions; it does not replace every operational task. Available automation depends on the service, setup and connected providers.
LIVE SERVICE
A broker coordinating a pickup change
Your team records a new pickup appointment on the shipment and communicates it to the carrier. The next coordinator can review the same load record, check the latest update and follow up on delivery documents after the move. Everyone works from the recorded shipment context.
This illustrative workflow is separate from live shipments and private customer records.
