BlueGrace Logistics Embeds Shiplify Into BlueShip®TMS, Reducing Shipment Variance and Driving Seven-Figure Routing Gains
Atlanta, JUNE 2, 2026 — BlueGrace Logistics, one of the nation’s largest Managed Logistics providers, has embedded Shiplify’s accessorial intelligence into its proprietary BlueShip® TMS, delivering measurable improvements in LTL shipment accuracy and carrier routing efficiency. Through its freight audit operations, BlueGrace identified a consistent issue across customer shipments: incomplete accessorial data was distorting total landed cost and driving avoidable variance.
“Carrier pricing should reflect reality at the time of quote, not after delivery,” said Jason Lockard, Chief Commercial Officer at BlueGrace. “We wanted to eliminate surprises and make routing decisions based on complete cost visibility.”
By integrating Shiplify directly into BlueShip, accessorial requirements such as residential delivery and liftgate needs are now identified automatically before carrier selection.
The results have been substantial.
One customer reduced shipment variance from 65% to approximately 30%. In another instance, incorporating accessorial intelligence into routing decisions generated over seven figures in direct cost reduction by selecting the actual least cost carrier at the time of booking.
“When accessorial intelligence is applied upstream, you fundamentally change the economics of LTL,” said North Winship, President of Shiplify. “BlueGrace didn’t just implement data, they operationalized it in a way that improves carrier alignment, and customer experience.”
Following successful validation within managed logistics accounts, BlueGrace has made Shiplify its default configuration for all new LTL customers.
The integration reflects BlueGrace’s continued investment in technology-driven precision across its billion-dollar freight platform.
