Banyan Technology’s LIVE Connect™ Software Named Digital Freight Audit Solution of the Year

Banyan Technology has been selected as the winner of the “Digital Freight Audit Solution of the Year” award in the 2023 SupplyTech Breakthrough Awards program.

Banyan Technology’s LIVE Connect™ Software Named Digital Freight Audit Solution of the Year

CLEVELAND, OH (June 16, 2023) – Banyan Technology, the leading provider of freight management software for real-time rating and execution of all over-the-road (OTR) shipments, has been selected as the winner of the “Digital Freight Audit Solution of the Year” award in the 2023 SupplyTech Breakthrough Awards program.

SupplyTech Breakthrough, a leading independent market intelligence organization that evaluates and recognizes standout technology companies, products and services in the supply chain technology and logistics industry, recognized Banyan’s patented LIVE Connect™ software for its Freight Bill Management tool.


“It’s an honor to have our LIVE Connect software named the ‘Digital Freight Audit Solution of the Year’. The Freight Bill Management tool was developed through collaboration with our clients and is designed to ensure they never overpay for shipping again,” said Brian Smith, CEO of Banyan Technology. “I’m proud of what our Team has accomplished in delivering innovative, new solutions our clients need to enhance our dynamic platform.”

Due to their complexity and high incidence of mistakes, inaccurate freight bills are much more common than many realize and can result in significant losses. About 1 in 4 freight bills contain an error, causing companies to overpay by an average of up to 13% annually. In a $1.06 trillion OTR shipping market, that is equal to almost $138 billion in overpayments every year.

Banyan’s Freight Bill Management tool automates the freight charge validation process by providing a single, easy-to-use interface for its clients’ freight bills. It offers a side-by-side comparison of booked vs. billed shipments and helps to quickly find and rectify variations and duplicate bills, identify errors, and create better shipping processes. Users are then able to export their findings into virtually any accounting system.
“The Freight Bill Management tool is the most widely used feature of our LIVE Connect software,” said Teresa Waldron, Director of Client Experience at Banyan. “Clients were constantly struggling with allocating the time needed to validate their own freight bills with other priorities in the business. The tool allows them to address both priorities without adding extra bandwidth.”

Hub International announces strategic partnership with Mas Seguros to expand transportation cross-border capabilities

Chicago, IL, October 1, 2024 - Hub International Limited (HUB), a leading global insurance brokerage and financial services firm, announced today an exclusive referral and broker program partnership throughout the U.S., Canada and Mexico with MAS Seguros, the largest trucking insurance broker in Mexico. The partnership is a response to Mexico’s growing influence in the global economy and a reflection of HUB’s and MAS Seguros’ commitment to expanding its capabilities to better serve clients doing business throughout North America.

Due to changing global political relationships and policies*, there has been a significant move for manufacturing operations to Mexico, which comes with increased risk and insurance challenges when transporting goods cross-border. Organizations face regulatory compliance issues, crime, product damage, catastrophic weather events and accidents. Additionally, more transportation firms from Mexico are moving to the U.S. As a result, there is an emerging transportation and logistics need to manage risk and insure freight, property and assets while transporting goods into Mexico for manufacturing and then back to the U.S. and Canada.
