What Emulon runs for an FTL fleet

Emulon owns the work between delivery and the next dispatch — sourcing, negotiating, calling, and documenting — so a truck never sits for lack of attention.

Next load sourcing

Emulon watches every truck approaching empty and searches your broker relationships and the boards for freight that fits the driver, the equipment, and the hours left.

Deadhead-aware dispatch

Candidate loads are scored on deadhead, rate per mile, home time, and the next available appointment window before anything reaches a dispatcher.

Broker and driver calls

Emulon calls brokers to confirm and update, answers inbound check calls with live position, and reaches the driver whenever the plan changes.

Detention and accessorials

Gate-in and gate-out times are captured at every stop. When dwell crosses your threshold, Emulon drafts the detention claim with the evidence attached.

Every hour a driver waits on a dispatcher is an hour unpaid.

How a fleet adopts Emulon

From connected trucks to a dispatch loop that runs ahead of every empty trailer.

01

Connect trucks and systems

Emulon links your TMS, ELD feed, load boards, and broker portals so the agents see position, hours, and available capacity in one place.

02

Set your book rules

Lane floors, minimum rate per mile, acceptable deadhead, home-time commitments, and broker preferences become the policy every booking has to clear.

03

Run the dispatch loop

Emulon works ahead of each empty truck, sources and negotiates the next load, books it, and updates the driver and the TMS.

04

Dispatchers hold the wheel

Rate exceptions, driver conflicts, and detention claims stop for a human. Everything routine runs through, including overnight and across the weekend.

What changes in the fleet

Trucks keep moving and the money you already earned actually gets billed.

Fewer idle trucks

The search for the next load starts before the current one delivers, not after a dispatcher finally gets a free minute.

Check calls handled around the clock

Brokers get position and ETA whenever they ask, at any hour, without a dispatcher stopping to look up a truck.

Accessorials that get billed

Detention and layover evidence is captured as it happens, so claims go out with gate times instead of quietly being written off.
