Lane Management
Manage origin, destination, mileage, carrier, service type, rate structure, and facility-specific routing rules.
Routing Guide Management
Keep carrier routing decisions structured, visible, and enforceable.
Fidelis helps transportation teams manage lane assignments, primary and backup carriers, rates, service types, effective dates, compliance checks, and execution performance from one connected routing guide workflow.

The Problem
Routing guides break down when the plan is disconnected from execution.
Many routing guides live in spreadsheets, procurement files, email approvals, or TMS configurations that are hard for daily operators to interpret. The result is inconsistent carrier selection, outdated rates, missed backup options, and limited visibility into whether the routing guide is actually being followed.
- Lane rates and carrier assignments are difficult to maintain across facilities.
- Backup carriers are not always visible when primary coverage fails.
- Effective and expiration dates are easy to miss.
- Operators may not know whether a shipment followed the routing guide.
- Routing decisions are hard to connect back to cost, service, and carrier performance.
How Fidelis Helps
A routing guide connected to daily transportation execution.
Fidelis gives teams a structured way to organize contracted lanes, carrier hierarchy, service type, lane rates, effective dates, and operational compliance so routing decisions are easier to manage and easier to audit.
Primary & Backup Carriers
Maintain carrier hierarchy so teams know who should receive the load and what backup options exist.
Rate Visibility
Track rate per mile, flat rates, effective dates, expiration dates, and service type for each contracted lane.
Compliance Checks
Compare executed shipments against the expected routing guide to identify off-guide activity.
Carrier Performance Context
Connect routing guide decisions to carrier service, appointment compliance, shipment visibility, and exception history.
Archive & Change History
Preserve old rates, lane updates, deleted lanes, approvals, and routing changes for better governance.
Workflow
From contracted lane to executed shipment.
01
Create or update lane rules
Define origin, destination, carrier assignment, service type, rate, effective date, and expiration date.
02
Apply carrier hierarchy
Identify primary, secondary, and backup carrier options so teams know how to route freight when coverage changes.
03
Monitor execution compliance
Compare shipments against expected carrier, lane, rate, service type, and facility routing rules.
04
Review performance and exceptions
Use service, cost, appointment, and visibility outcomes to improve future carrier and lane decisions.
Operational Impact
Routing guide metrics that improve control.
Routing Compliance
Shipments aligned with expected carrier and lane rules
Off-Guide Loads
Shipments executed outside the expected routing guide
Expiring Rates
Lane rates approaching expiration or requiring review
Carrier Coverage
Primary and backup carrier availability by lane
