An integration between its Prophesy Dispatch transportation management software and Rand McNally’s TPC, TND 760 and HD 100 in-cab mobile fleet management devices has been announced by Acellos. The integration is designed to allow dispatchers and drivers to focus on load data, which is now automatically sent to Rand McNally’s in-cab device, and all confirmations, arrivals/departures and other updates sent back by the driver are automatically processed.
The integration via Rand McNally Connect allows load information to be sent automatically to the in-cab device, including origin; address; city; state; destination; goods information including weight, pieces, pallets; scheduled pick up date; and delivery date and time. It also enables the driver to send and receive items such as actual arrival time; actual departure time; Bill of Lading number, actual goods; quantities broken down into weight, pallet, pieces, trailer number, and more.
