Not listed FR8RELAY AIMS TO DEVELOP SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY AND SERVICES TO POOL SHIPMENTS AND MATCH TRACTORS AND DRIVERS WITH TRAILERS AND CARGO IN A RELAY MODEL THAT ENSURES EQUIPMENT AND CARGO KEEP MOVING WHILE RETURNING DRIVERS HOME DAILY. THE CONVENTIONAL POINT-TO-POINT TRUCKING MODEL, COUPLED WITH FEDERAL HOURS OF SERVICE REGULATIONS, CAUSES EQUIPMENT AND CARGO TO SPEND AS MUCH AS HALF THE SHIPPING TIME IDLING ROADSIDE-COSTING CARRIERS $4+ BILLION A YEAR IN FUEL AND EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE. THE SAME CONSTRAINTS LIMITING FREIGHT CAPACITY CAUSE TRUCK DRIVERS TO SPEND A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF UNPAID TIME ON THE ROAD, CREATING A MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY EXHAUSTING PROFESSION WITH LIMITED MONETARY REWARD. AS A RESULT, THE INDUSTRY HAS A GAP IN HUMAN CAPACITY THAT COLLECTIVELY COSTS $8+ BILLION ANNUALLY AND COMPROMISES THE SUSTAINABILITY OF THE ENTIRE INDUSTRY.OUR COMBINATION OF A SOFTWARE PRODUCT AND SERVICE WILL ALLOW FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A RELAY MODEL IN LONG-HAUL FREIGHT TRUCKING TO SIGNIFICANTLY DECREASE THE EXPENSIVE INEFFICIENCIES IN EQUIPMENT AND HUMAN CAPACITY THAT THREATEN THE INDUSTRY'S SUSTAINABILITY. THE RESULTING SOFTWARE PRODUCT WILL PROVIDE RELAY-AS-A-SERVICE THAT WILL DISRUPT THE CONVENTIONAL METHOD OF LONG-HAUL TRUCKING BY ELIMINATING UNNECESSARY DOWNTIME BUILT INTO SUPPLY CHAINS. THIS MODEL COULD POTENTIALLY DOUBLE ASSET UTILIZATION, CUT DELIVERY TIMES IN HALF, AND DECREASE THE HIGH COST OF TRUCK DRIVER TURNOVER. FURTHERMORE, IMPLEMENTING SUCH A MODEL WITH RELAY EXCHANGE NODES LOCATED IN ECONOMICALLY DISTRESSED RURAL COMMUNITIES ALONG MAJOR TRUCKING CORRIDORS COULD PROVIDE SIGNIFICANT LOCAL ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES WHILE IMPROVING WORKING CONDITIONS FOR THE LONG-HAUL TRUCKING WORKFORCE. $0 8/3/26 Not listed FR8RELAY AIMS TO DEVELOP SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGY AND SERVICES TO POOL SHIPMENTS AND MATCH TRACTORS AND DRIVERS WITH TRAILERS AND CARGO IN A RELAY MODEL THAT ENSURES EQUIPMENT AND CARGO KEEP MOVING WHILE RETURNING DRIVERS HOME DAILY.
