Global Translogic Inc prides itself on the compliance we have with over 5000 carriers, by offering freight from over 2000 customers ranging from Fortune 100 to small to medium shippers.  Because Global Translogic Inc is a non-asset base, the relationship we have with our carriers essential.

We constantly seek to develop better ways to communicate with our carriers by offering technology for carriers to find desirable freight for their backhauls and post their equipment availability.  Our contact center adds the human touch by calling our active carriers to check on any future concerns or opportunities from lack of capacity to new equipment and lane expansion plans.

Global Translogic Inc policy for carrier selection is paramount to insure we align your freight with the best carrier in the industry.

Contract Carrier Policy for Selection

Create a file on every trucking company to be used in the firm's "stable" of carriers, and insist that it be checked prior to loading them the first time.

Include a copy of the carrier's operating authorities and insurance filings with the FMCSA.

Include the carrier's safety rating with the FMCSA. Don't use a carrier if it has an "Unsatisfactory" rating

If a carrier's rating is "Conditional", call and obtain its explanation. Insist on receiving copies of the FMCSA's inspection reports, which may reveal that the infractions were minor. Ask the carrier to explain what it is doing to change its rating to "Satisfactory". Use that carrier only if you are convinced it is sincerely trying to be in full compliance and that it probably will be restored to a "Satisfactory" rating.

If the carrier has no safety rating, you must conduct your own investigation into the carrier's record of accidents, FMCSA inspection reports, driver compliance with hours of service regulations, its compliance with record-keeping regulations, medical exams, accident reports, etc.

Check the FMCSA's SafeStat records for the carrier's SEA rating (a rating over 75 is deemed to be deficient.

Every trucking company file must be kept current with any information received, and it should be reviewed on a regular basis for changes.

Customer Service will call monthly to keep carriers files current and update any changes and flag any concerns to the Carrier Development Manager.

Check with carrier to see if shipper has had problems with this carrier in the past. If so than another carrier will be used.

No carrier will be used if it has a history of back soliciting and contacting carriers for work performed by the 3PL it was contracted by.

Global Translogic Inc will not knowingly permit their name to be shown on the bill of lading as the carrier. If a shipper is following that practice, we will request they discontinue doing so immediately.
