Acumatica + Prime Inc

Refrigerated, Flatbed, Tanker, and Intermodal. All Managed in Acumatica.

BASG connects your Acumatica ERP directly to Prime Inc's four transportation divisions, giving your team automated labels, real-time load tracing, temperature monitoring, and freight cost management from a single platform.

Prime Inc Meets Acumatica

Prime Inc has been moving freight across North America since 1970. What started as a single truck in Springfield, Missouri has grown into one of the continent's largest transportation companies with over 9,000 drivers and four specialized divisions. Their refrigerated fleet alone exceeds 6,500 trucks and 11,700 remotely-monitored temperature-controlled trailers, making it the largest in North America.

For businesses running Acumatica, coordinating with a carrier of Prime's scale and division complexity typically means juggling multiple portals, re-entering data across systems, and manually reconciling freight costs. BASG eliminates that friction. We build a direct integration between Acumatica and Prime's transportation platform so your shipping operations are managed where your business already runs.

  • 55+ years of freight experience across every major transportation mode
  • Four specialized divisions covering refrigerated, flatbed, tanker, and intermodal freight
  • US and Canada coverage with 9,000+ drivers and 24/7/365 live support
  • Real-time load tracing and remote temperature monitoring across the entire fleet

Over 6,500 trucks and 11,700 remotely-monitored, temperature-controlled trailers. Fresh produce, floral, pharmaceuticals, fresh or frozen meats, and any dry or temperature-controlled freight covered nationwide.

Only Flatbed & Reefer Intermodal Carrier

Prime is America's only flatbed and refrigerated intermodal freight carrier. Rail and truck coordination managed end to end, from departure to delivery, across virtually every market on the continent.

Food Grade & Bulk Liquid Tanker

300 food grade and 50 inedible bulk liquid trucks with 625+ specialized trailers. Kosher-certified options available. Tanker division handles the most demanding liquid freight requirements.

What the Integration Delivers

A purpose-built connection between Acumatica and Prime Inc that eliminates manual logistics management and brings multi-division shipping operations into your ERP.

Automated Label Generation

Generate carrier-compliant shipping labels for refrigerated, flatbed, tanker, and intermodal loads directly from Acumatica. Support for FTL and LTL with division-specific formatting, barcodes, and handling codes.

Pickup & Delivery Scheduling

Coordinate pickup windows and delivery appointments between Acumatica and Prime's dispatch across all four divisions. Automated scheduling that accounts for temperature requirements, load type, and regional routing.

Remote Temperature Monitoring

Continuous temperature data from Prime's 11,700+ remotely-monitored reefer trailers fed into Acumatica. Real-time alerts, deviation logs, and compliance records accessible from the shipment record.

Real-Time Load Tracing

Prime's load tracing system synced into Acumatica shipment records. Your operations team sees live freight location, ETA updates, status changes, and delivery confirmations without switching platforms.

Freight Rate & Cost Allocation

Pull Prime rates into Acumatica for quoting and invoicing across all divisions. Automated freight cost allocation to sales orders, projects, or cost centers with full audit trails and margin visibility.

Document & BOL Automation

Auto-generate bills of lading, packing lists, proof of delivery, permits, and compliance documentation. All shipping documents stored against the corresponding Acumatica transaction for instant retrieval.

Multi-Division Freight in Acumatica

Working with a carrier that operates four distinct transportation divisions creates complexity that standard ERP shipping modules were not designed to handle. Our Prime integration bridges that gap.

Standard Acumatica carrier plug-ins handle parcel shipping effectively. FedEx, UPS, and USPS integrations cover labels, package tracking, and rate shopping for small packages. But when your freight portfolio spans refrigerated trailers, open-deck flatbeds, food-grade tankers, and intermodal rail containers, the requirements go far beyond what parcel integrations address. Each Prime division has its own rate structures, label formats, scheduling rules, and compliance requirements.

Division-Aware Routing

The integration routes shipments to the correct Prime division automatically based on item attributes, load type, temperature requirements, or order-level flags you define. A frozen food order triggers the refrigerated workflow. A construction materials shipment routes to flatbed. A bulk liquid load goes to tanker. Your team books across all four divisions from the same Acumatica interface without needing to know division-specific booking procedures.

Built on Acumatica's Extensibility Framework

We develop the integration using Acumatica's native customization platform. Custom carrier plug-ins, automation schedules, webhooks, and screens are all built through the extensibility engine. The integration coexists with your existing Acumatica modules, survives version upgrades, and scales as you add more Prime division coverage or shipping volume.

From Booking to Cost Reconciliation

The integration covers the full freight lifecycle. From the moment a sales order is ready to ship, through division selection, label generation, pickup scheduling, real-time load tracing, temperature monitoring for reefer loads, delivery confirmation, and freight cost posting, every step lives inside Acumatica. No more toggling between Prime's portal and your ERP to get a complete picture of your logistics.

Prime's 24/7/365 live support combined with Acumatica's real-time visibility means your team always has both carrier support and system-level freight data available when issues arise. No blind spots.

How We Build the Integration

A focused, proven approach from logistics audit to live multi-division shipping operations.

1

Logistics Audit

We map your current shipping workflows, Prime division requirements, and Acumatica configuration. Every integration starts with a clear picture of how freight moves through your business across refrigerated, flatbed, tanker, or intermodal lanes.

2

Integration Design

Our team architects the data flow between Acumatica and Prime's systems. Label formats, rate tables, load tracing endpoints, scheduling rules, division routing logic, and exception handling are all documented before development begins.

3

Build & Test

We develop the integration in a staging environment with simulated loads across applicable Prime divisions. Label accuracy, rate calculations, tracking feeds, temperature data, and edge cases are validated end to end.

4

Go-Live & Monitor

The integration launches with real-time monitoring, error alerting, and fallback procedures. We stay engaged through the first shipping cycles and provide ongoing support as volume and division coverage scale.
