Open-deck freight planning software for dimensional, oversize, flatbed, step-deck, and heavy-haul quoting workflows.

Short practical answer

A flatbed project freight quote should be grounded in load count, equipment assumptions, dimensional exposure, and customer-safe documentation.

Practical workflow steps

  1. Enter the full freight set instead of quoting from the largest piece only.
  2. Compare flatbed and step-deck plans before assuming specialty equipment.
  3. Review OD/OW warnings and route-state assumptions.
  4. Export a quote summary that separates planning logic from unsupported guarantees.

How teams usually do this manually

Flatbed project freight can be underquoted when teams miss load-count splits, side-by-side overwidth, or heavy/tall add-on freight.
