Sunnybrook, a multi-modal Transportation Management System (TMS) and Highway, the industry’s leading Carrier Identity® and fraud prevention platform, team up to bring Sunnybrook TMS users access to more robust tools — streamlining carrier onboarding and ensuring compliance needs are met for all Sunnybrook users.
By integrating Highway’s top of the line fraud prevention tools directly into Sunnybrook TMS, users will be able to source, vet and onboard carriers all within one platform allowing organizations to optimize freight operations.
“Our brokerage clients have seen significant efficiency gains by being able to source and onboard carriers without navigating away from the TMS, while maintaining confidence in the vetting process,” said Adam Lang, Director of Technology at Sunnybrook. “Our clients have also expressed progress in becoming less dependent on load boards as they utilize Highway’s carrier equipment information within Sunnybrook’s carrier sourcing tool.”
Sunnybrook TMS users gain immediate benefits with this integration, including:
- Streamlined Carrier Onboarding: By integrating Highway's carrier identity verification tools, Sunnybrook aims to simplify and accelerate the process of onboarding carriers. This will enable its customers to onboard compliant carriers with greater efficiency and reduce the administrative burden.
- Enhanced Fraud Prevention: Highway's ability to verify carrier identity at a granular level helps mitigate the risk of fraud, such as double-brokering or using non-compliant carriers. Sunnybrook will leverage this feature to ensure its users can confidently select legitimate and reliable carrier partners.
- Increased Customer Trust: By offering a solution that prioritizes transparency and security in carrier relationships, Sunnybrook aims to build trust among its customers, positioning the TMS as a reliable and forward-thinking platform.
- Optimized Freight Operations: The enhanced carrier data provided by Highway will support Sunnybrook’s broader initiatives to optimize freight operations, including carrier sourcing, rate negotiations, and lane utilization.
Heartland Logistics Group, a 3PL and joint customer, has revolutionized its operations by integrating Sunnybrook TMS with Highway for carrier onboarding, compliance, and fraud prevention. After years of utilizing Highway’s sourcing tools and operating on a legacy TMS, Heartland switched to Sunnybrook TMS in June 2024 for a more modern, efficient, and integrated solution. In October 2024, they replaced their old onboarding platform with Highway’s full suite of tools, creating a seamless system for carrier sourcing, onboarding, and compliance monitoring.
Since implementing Highway in October, they have not experienced a single fraud incident—eliminating risks like double-brokering through Highway’s robust fraud prevention tools. With automated onboarding and real-time compliance monitoring within Sunnybrook TMS and the security that Highway offers, Heartland has been able to focus on growing the organization while maintaining efficient and secure operations.
“As integration partners, our mission at Highway is to provide improved, seamless operations to users all while giving them the peace of mind they deserve when it comes to vetting carriers,” said Michael Caney, Chief Commercial Officer at Highway. “We’re proud to partner with such a dedicated organization like Sunnybrook to allow companies like Heartland to focus on what really matters — growth.”
