ProBuilt TMS gives truckload carriers and freight brokers a connected browser-based platform to keep transportation work visible, live and moving.

Texas-based ProBuilt Software started implementing the platform this month with its first transportation client. Built on ProBuilt’s patent-pending Floating Forms architecture, it was developed for truckload carriers and freight brokers.

ProBuilt TMS brings carrier dispatch, broker dispatch and GAAP-based accounting into one connected transportation platform. Placing core transportation and financial functions in the same system can reduce the need for trucking companies to rely on separate products such as QuickBooks (quickbooks.intuit.com), third-party payroll platforms, mileage systems, document tools, portals and other transportation-specific applications to run the business.

Transportation operations do not work on one task at a time. Loads, drivers, customers, documents, invoices, settlements, payroll, receivables and payables are constantly moving at the same time. ProBuilt TMS was developed to keep that work visible inside the browser instead of forcing users to jump from screen to screen, record to record, and system to system throughout the day.

The Floating Forms architecture lets users open and work across multiple live records at the same time inside a single browser session. A user can keep a load record, driver profile, equipment record, invoice, dispatch board and customer record open simultaneously without losing context or closing one screen to reach another.

“We would not have gotten back into transportation software just to build another one-page-at-a-time browser system,” said Michael Till, CEO of ProBuilt Software. “The whole point of ProBuilt TMS was to solve that problem. Users need to open multiple forms, keep them live and keep working without losing where they are. If you still need spreadsheets and post-it-notes to get through the day, then your TMS is sorely lacking and certainly not modern.”

ProBuilt TMS (www.probuilttms.com) was designed to connect the operational and financial sides of transportation in one system. For carriers, that means dispatch activity, driver and equipment visibility, mileage, routing, payroll, documents and financial reporting can remain tied to the underlying transportation work. For brokers, it means carrier onboarding, compliance, billing, payments and document handling can operate from the same connected platform.

A GAAP-based accounting system is built directly into the platform. While many cloud TMS products promote QuickBooks integration as a selling point, ProBuilt TMS takes a different approach by keeping transportation accounting inside the system where the load activity begins. Freight invoices, receivables, payables, settlements, company driver payroll, owner-operator pay and ledger-connected transactions are handled without forcing accounting personnel to move between a dispatch system and a separate accounting product.

The ProBuilt Miles web-based mileage and routing system is integrated directly. Developed using authoritative commercial road network data and built for transportation mileage and routing, ProBuilt Miles gives carriers and brokers a native mileage system inside the same platform where loads, dispatch, billing, settlements and driver activity are managed. The platform also connects with a proprietary integrated load board, dispatch and driver mobile app, and carrier and employee web portals, giving carriers and brokers a broader transportation ecosystem without forcing them into a fragmented software stack.

AI capabilities are designed to help transportation companies expand the system around their own operational needs. The AI is intended to help users create internal tools, forms, reports and modules without requiring programming knowledge. Because AI usage carries real processing costs, ProBuilt expects to offer certain AI capabilities through defined usage levels or credit allotments, with additional details to be released as the platform moves forward.
