Known officially as Schneider National, Inc., this leading multimodal transportation and logistics provider is transforming its interaction with owner-operators through the innovative Schneider FreightPower® platform. This revamped platform significantly expands owner-operators’ reach to Schneider’s diverse freight options, while offering intuitive functionality and advanced search capabilities to optimize business operations, according to the release.

Benefits for owner-operators utilizing Schneider’s platform include:

• Expanded Freight Access: Owner-operators now enjoy broader access to Schneider’s comprehensive freight offerings, covering both traditional loads and other freight services managed by Schneider.
• Advanced Features: The platform is accessible across devices—mobile, desktop, and tablet—offering enhanced functionality, detailed load insights, favorite searches, and reload options for more strategic planning and reduced empty hauls.
• High Drop-and-Hook Rate: Over 95% of available freight opportunities on the platform are drop-and-hook shipments, significantly boosting efficiency and productivity for owner-operators.
• Improved Trip Planning: Load postings now include road miles, a user-friendly update that aids in more precise trip planning for owner-operators.

“Collaborating with owner-operators is an important component in the success of our business and the reliable service we can provide customers, which is why the network has grown tremendously in the last 25 years,” stated Schneider Senior Vice President and General Manager of Truckload and Mexico, John Bozec. “We want to invest in tools that support owner-operators in running and growing their businesses. With Schneider FreightPower, they gain access to better load management, increasing their productivity and revenue potential.”

Schneider’s statement also noted that the FreightPower enhancements were tested with a select group of owner-operators already using the platform. This strategy allowed Schneider to gather crucial feedback, ensuring the platform’s functionality and user-friendliness, ultimately saving time and streamlining success for owner-operators.
