The initial setup is complete within 24 hours. Once approved, clients can instantly request and receive funds for individual freight transactions directly from ITS Dispatch.“The integration with BAM Worldwide offers many advantages to ITS Dispatch customers. By using this new, powerful lending capability, small brokerage firms can compete against much larger companies in terms of speed, capacity and efficiency,” said Tal Rahaman, general manager of ITS Canada.Brokerage clients can use the integrated features to accelerate cash flow by eliminating delays caused by paperwork and manual data entry, ITS said. “The ITS Dispatch and BAM Worldwide platforms use a simplified, electronic process to conduct rate confirmations, load tendering, financing, load tracking, filing of delivery documents, and more — all of which are accessible from a single screen,” according to the company.“We are excited about working with ITS Dispatch clients and helping them grow by providing instant access to capital, automated payment processing and other vital financial services through an integrated platform,” said Todd Ehrlich, president and CEO of BAM Worldwide.
