It’s awesome that we can give carriers estimated volumes that vary lane by lane within a given RFP. We aren’t able to do that today.”

I like that you have carrier metrics here; tender acceptance, bounce rate, and OTP/OTD. These are things that we don’t have in the Emerge RFP tool.”

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1. How do I get access to RFP Manager?

If you are a Transfix customer, reach out to your Transfix support team and they will help you get set up. If you are not a customer, you can get started right now by clicking here, or you can speak to a Transfix team member by scheduling a demo below.

Additionally, since RFP Manager is a new feature within the Transfix Shipper App experience, all RFP Manager users will also have access to the intelligent freight solutions our app offers.

Q2. Is RFP Manager free to use?

Yes, we are pleased to deliver RFP Manager as a free freight procurement tool within the Transfix Shipper App suite of solutions.

Q3. Will Transfix bid on my RFP?

Transfix will be able to submit competitive bids on all RFPs or mini-bid exercises conducted through RFP Manager. For shippers this means one less carrier to contact. Shippers, as always, will be able to select where their lanes or loads are awarded and tendered.

Q4. How will Transfix use my data? Is it shared?

Transfix values data privacy highly and has built RFP Manager with this in mind, with a distinct separation between our brokerage services and our software solutions. The Transfix brokerage, like all other bidders, will only receive that information which the shipper approves and will not have access to bid data from other carriers. In addition, you can review our comprehensive privacy policy to learn more about how we work to protect our customers’ data.

Q5. How will carriers respond to bids?

RFP Manager makes it easy and seamless for carriers and brokers to view and respond to RFPs and mini-bids. Upon invitation by shippers, carriers will get access to your RFP bidding portal via email. Carriers can then submit their bids on your RFP or mini-bid directly through the bidding portal, within RFP Manager, without setting up a user account.

Q6. What support can I get with the software?

Like other features of the Transfix Shipper App, the Transfix team is available to assist you every step of the way: from onboarding to shipment execution. The Transfix Product Support team will assist shippers with any technical issues they may encounter.

Q7. What is the Transfix Shipper App?

Transfix Shipper App is a cloud-based freight execution and procurement software that helps shippers centralize and manage their entire domestic truckload freight network. It provides visibility and self-serve control over not only their Transfix shipments, but also all shipments with other carriers, in one easy to use interface. Learn more here.
