What will happen when I’ve been awarded a shipment?

Congratulations, your proposal was the one we’ve selected and you’ve been awarded some work! What next?

  1. You will receive an email that states you’ve been awarded the work with a file that has all of the pertinent address information, contact information, and shipment details
  2. For trucking, you will be asked to attached the BOL to the award email where it will automatically be sent to the origin
  3. For air and ocean, you will received a second email that introduces you to the origin location to start arranging the pickup. If you have a local agent, this is a good email chain to add them to in order to get things going.
