As a valued client of Time Logistics Inc. (TLI), you can trust that your shipments are in safe hands. Our updated carrier onboarding process, effective June 16, 2025, is designed to ensure that only the most reliable carriers handle your freight, protecting you from risks and delays. Here’s how we vet our carriers and safeguard your goods against fraud.

How We Vet Carriers for Your Peace of Mind

When you partner with TLI, we take extra steps to ensure the carriers we work with meet strict standards to keep your freight secure. Every carrier must have at least 1 year of active authority, proving their experience in the industry. Here’s what we do:

  • Initial Carrier411 Check: We start by screening carriers through Carrier411, confirming they have a passing Basic Percentile Score (Green or Yellow—Red is a no-go). We also verify they have no history of double brokering or recent legitimate FreightGuard reports, so you won’t face issues with unreliable partners.
  • RMIS Application Process: Once pre-qualified, carriers complete an online application via RMIS. During this step, we confirm they carry current auto, cargo, and general liability insurance policies, ensuring your freight is fully protected with no expired coverage. We keep their email domain consistent for security (e.g., switching from dispatch@carryyourfreight.com to tom@carryyourfreight.com is fine, but not to a different domain).
  • Seamless Integration: After approval, we update their profiles in Carma, either automatically or with a forced Delta submission for quicker access, so your shipments move smoothly.

Only carriers meeting these criteria are selected, giving you confidence in every delivery.

Protecting Your Freight from Fraud

Fraud in logistics can be a concern, but TLI has your back. Our vetting process weeds out risky carriers by checking for signs like double brokering. After onboarding, we add an extra layer of security:

  • Post-Onboarding MacroPoint Tracking: Once a carrier is dispatched to your load, they must use MacroPoint tracking. This gives you real-time visibility into your shipment’s journey, helping us spot and address any unusual activity.
  • TMS Integration and Monitoring: We run new carrier profiles, update their contact details in the Tech Tab, and export to our Transportation Management System (TMS). Our team continuously monitors performance using Carrier411, RMIS, and MacroPoint to catch and resolve potential fraud risks.

Why This Matters to You

As our client, you benefit from TLI’s thorough approach. With requirements like 1 year of active authority, comprehensive insurance, no double brokering, and MacroPoint tracking, we minimize delays and protect your freight from fraudulent activities. This means you can focus on your business while we handle the logistics with care.
