By JOURNAL STAFF

DAT Freight & Analytics has acquired the operations of Trucker Tools, a company specializing in load visibility, automated booking, digital freight matching, and carrier engagement for commercial trucking. The acquisition will expand DAT's ability to provide real-time GPS tracking and load optimization on the DAT One platform, an industry marketplace for spot truckload freight, with more than 668,000 loads posted daily. Trucker Tools provides real-time visibility for more than 750 freight brokers and accelerates load tendering, rate negotiation, load booking, and digital document management through its Smart Load Board. Its Trucker Tools app helps 350,000 owner-operators, carriers, and drivers find and book loads on the spot market and manage replies to their offers and bids. DAT acquired Trucker Tools from ASG, a portfolio company of Alpine Investors. Trucker Tools will operate under its current leadership, with Kary Jablonski, CEO of Trucker Tools, joining the DAT executive team. DAT Freight & Analytics operates a truckload freight marketplace and truckload freight data analytics service, serving shippers, transportation brokers, carriers, news organizations, and industry analysts. Founded in 1978, DAT is a business unit of Roper Technologies, and is headquartered in Beaverton, Oregon.
