Let's Buddy Up!
A collaborative shipping platform that automates lengthy processes and solves supply chain inefficiencies one backhaul at a time.
Project Description
Backhaul Buddy was created to provide a solution for longstanding inefficiencies in our global supply chain that have resulted in tremendous amounts of waste. We have grossly mismanaged a system that is the core of our economy resulting in carrier reliability issues, rate increases, missed revenue opportunities, and negative environmental effects.
Backhaul Buddy will give shippers, receivers, brokers and carriers a place to help themselves by helping others. A platform of collaboration between all logistic stakeholders that enables the private sharing of shipment data to determine the most efficient use of capacity of an entire region and automates processes to make it easy for users to take action. In fact, with Backhaul Buddy, collaboration that results in action is rewarded! Users can earn "Buddy Bucks" and use them to pay for membership fees and/or shipment costs.
Accomplishing this will have a positive impact on the entire economy and will have a trickle down effect all the way to the air we breathe, as Backhaul Buddy supports sustainability efforts by reducing carbon footprints and emissions.
Our Company is seeking funding to accelerate the deployment of this much needed solution. We will use the funds to complete the MVP of the application and begin our beta testing phase. We will also use it to start our marketing campaign and hire an employee to aid in our success.
