Online Logistics Platform Development

I’m building a web-based logistics aggregator that seamlessly connects shippers and carriers in one place. Both individuals and companies should be able to sign up, compare providers, and manage every step of a shipment without calling or emailing around.

Key experiences I need delivered:

• Shipper workspace
– Real-time shipment tracking pulled from carrier APIs
– Instant price quotes after basic parcel or pallet info is entered
– Ability to rate and review logistics providers once a job closes

• Logistics-provider workspace
– Dashboard for tracking every shipment they handle through the platform
– Customer management tools that store contacts, documents, and recurring jobs
– Integrated payment processing so they can invoice and receive funds inside the system
For Users / Clients

Core requirements:

• Responsive web app (desktop, tablet, mobile) built on a mainstream stack you’re comfortable scaling
• Secure account creation with role-based access (shipper, provider, super-admin)
• Clean, intuitive UI/UX—no training manuals needed
• API framework ready for major carrier integrations (e.g., FedEx, DHL, regional couriers)
• Transaction logging, basic analytics, and exportable reports for admins
• Deployment to a cloud host of my choice with staging and production environments set up
• Thorough QA and hand-over of source code, documentation, and a short video walkthrough

I’m looking for a partner who can lead the full cycle—from architecture and prototyping to launch—while keeping future feature additions in mind. If you’ve built SaaS-style dashboards or marketplace apps before, I’d love to see your work and discuss timelines.
