RTM losing €126/load after full cost allocation. Flagged for rate review.
Fleet profitability software calculates the true profit or loss on every load a carrier hauls by tracking all cost factors and allocating them to individual loads, trucks, and lanes. Unlike standard accounting software that shows total company P&L, profitability analytics breaks margin down to the per-load and per-km level.
Road transport runs on thin margins. Revenue is visible, but costs are spread across fuel cards, payroll, insurance bills, maintenance invoices, and toll statements. Without a system that ties each cost to the load that incurred it, fleet managers are working from incomplete data.
QTMS Profit Engine integrates with your existing systems (tachograph, fuel cards, payroll, accounting) and automatically allocates the cost inputs tied to each load. The result: real-time per-load P&L, lane-level margin ranking, and truck-level cost-per-km that updates with every fuel swipe and toll charge.
Most carriers calculate cost-per-km once per quarter from accounting totals. That number is weeks old and averages over the trucks and lanes bleeding money. Without real-time cost-per-km per asset, every rate negotiation is a guess.
Weeks-old data
Tolls, detention, fuel surcharges, tire wear, maintenance reserves, and empty repositioning add up quietly. These costs never appear on a transport order but directly reduce your net margin. Accounting catches them after the damage is done.
Cents per km slip through untracked
Without lane-level P&L, carriers keep running corridors that lose money, subsidized by profitable ones they should expand. A lane that looks solid on gross revenue may be underwater once empty running, regional fuel costs, and tolls are factored in.
Some lanes lose money quietly
The data is there. It just needs to be connected.
Connect fuel cards, toll accounts, tachograph data, payroll, maintenance, insurance, and accounting. QTMS keeps the source visible so your team can review how each cost is assigned.
Fixed costs (insurance, truck payments, permits) are allocated per unit automatically. Variable costs (fuel, tolls, tire wear) are attached to the specific loads and trucks that incurred them. The result: a true cost-per-km for every asset in your fleet, updated as costs come in.
Revenue and allocated costs are mapped to origin-destination pairs across your network. Lane margin bars show which corridors make money and which ones quietly drain margin. Filter by customer, driver, truck, or time period to find exactly where to focus.
Armed with per-load P&L and lane-level margins, you negotiate rates with cost evidence, not gut feeling. Drop unprofitable lanes, expand high-margin corridors, and forecast operating costs before committing to new freight.
Revenue, connected cost inputs, and net margin stay together at load level. Missing inputs remain visible for review instead of being hidden in a monthly total.
