Tame the Chaos of LTL Freight. From Dry Goods to Cold Chain.
Generic Software Fails When Freight Gets Complicated.
Managing Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) freight isn’t just about finding capacity. It is a constant battle against fragmented carrier networks, intricate dimensional pricing, and the silent budget killers: unpredictable accessorials, carrier re-weighs, and re-classifications. Off-the-shelf software simply breaks down under these requirements.
At ALC Logistics, we bring 50 years of supply chain DNA to our software. Whether you are navigating strict retail routing guides or managing high-stakes shipments, we engineered AlchemyTMS for LTL to handle the rigorous realities of the dock—giving you the precision to control costs and deliver on time.
Engineered for the Realities of the Floor
AlchemyTMS is built on a modular, configurable architecture. By leveraging AlchemyTMS for LTL, you instantly unlock the ability to manage complex, multimodal freight from a single, unified dashboard.
Advanced Tariffs
Stop leaving money on the table. Ingest your heavily negotiated carrier tariffs, standard base rate indexes (like CzarLite), dimensional pricing matrices, and class exceptions into our system, leveraging direct carrier relationships and automated LTL rate shopping.
Absolute Shipment Visibility
Stop flying blind between terminals. Gain accurate milestone visibility and predictive ETAs to track multi-stop loads through the breakbulk network. Proactively handle exceptions before the customer calls you.
Seamless Freight Audit Integration
LTL billing is notoriously error-prone. By connecting your LTL operations directly to Freight Audit, you can automatically match carrier invoices against your negotiated rates, catching billing discrepancies and weight corrections before they are paid.
One Command Center for Your Entire Freight Network 
AlchemyTMS for LTL operates within your existing AlchemyTMS ecosystem. This means your team can rate, route, and track complex LTL shipments in the same environment used for your full truckload freight—eliminating data silos and the need to switch between screens.
