Roger’s Technology Is Changing the Way the Bulk Freight Industry Does Business – PRNewswire

Roger announced today that it has opened its ecosystem up for all dry bulk truck shippers and carriers to access.

Roger was developed with feedback from more than 500 trucking companies and industry leaders in dry bulk freight shipping. While Roger is less than a year old, more than 150,000 loads have been completed using Roger's technologies, with nearly 500 carriers hauling more than 45 different commodities for major dry bulk shippers like The Andersons Inc., Cargill,Consolidated Grain and Barge Co.,Koch FertilizerandThe Scoular Company. Roger is also backed by one of the industry's leading agricultural technology companies, Bushel.

"Shipper and carrier relationships are important in our business," said Jeff Schreiner, CEO of Roger. "The key to success is being able to build additional business relationships and then use data-driven insights to make informed and profitable business decisions. Roger does just that. It is a neutral and secure solution that uses technology to organize data, create efficiencies, and connect shippers and carriers in a new, more transparent way."

Current bulk freight processes are fragmented and manual, resulting in lost productivity and revenue potential. Roger's technologies aim to solve some of the industry's biggest challenges.

"Rogerhas improved our communication with carriers and partners," said Jeannie Frana, Global Process Owner, Cargill Transportation and Logistics. "We've been able to reduce phone calls, cut back on paperwork and pay our carriers faster. It's a win-win for Cargill and our carriers."

Roger Technology Solutions

Roger is a single, universal technology solution that can integrate with existing systems and be used across the entire industry, giving shippers and carriers tools that can be used together or individually:

"The visibility of our carrier's location allows us to make real-time logistical decisions," said Ryan Napier, Grain Merchandiser, Scoular, "while the paperless billing streamlined the flow of information from carriers to customers, increased our payment turnaround and enabled almost real-time information flow to our customers."

Napier added, "The level of transparency and trust Roger offers is unlike any other platform we've used. Our customers can instantly see the location of their load and the information we have on the load; see as soon as a truck scales out of our facility, when it scales into the destination and when the load is delivered. It has improved the level of customer service we can provide tremendously."
