NT Logistics (NT), a leading third-party logistics provider specializing in transportation and supply chain solutions, announced the launch of Routing as a Service Plus (RaaS+). This new service offering combines advanced routing tools with expert-led service to help shippers reduce transportation costs, streamline fleet planning, and improve delivery efficiency.
“Most companies have routing challenges, but they’re often buried inside spreadsheets or solved manually,” said Lynn Gravley, Founder and CEO of NT Logistics. “RaaS+ turns route trucks into profit machines – maximizing efficiency, cutting miles, and slashing costs — without the price tag or hassle of owning the technology.”
A recent customer analysis demonstrated measurable cost savings and efficiency gains using NT’s RaaS 1.0. In several delivery scenarios, optimized route sequencing reduced mileage by 9% to 27%, including the one case where a 5630 mile route was shortened by more than 150 miles. These results highlight the tangible impact of NT’s approach to routing, showing how data-driven optimization translates directly into lower costs and improved fleet efficiency.

Key Features of RaaS+
The “plus” in RaaS+ refers to the strategic and service-driven elements built into the offering:
- Daily route sequencing tailored to changing volumes and constraints
- Fleet and asset deployment to match current needs
- Networking analysis to uncover routing inefficiencies, high-cost lanes, and rerouting opportunities
- Expert oversight to ensure outputs are practical and actionable
“RaaS+ is a complete routing solution, powered by ‘human-in-the loop’ technology, managed by people who do routing and scheduling work every day,” said Alex Fritz, Chief Financial Officer (CFO) at NT Logistics. “We plan, monitor, and adjust routes as needed – all without the shipper having to touch a platform or hire additional staff.”
RaaS+ is especially valuable for companies managing their own local or regional deliveries, such as food and beverage distributors, consumer goods manufacturers, and private fleets. Instead of investing in costly software or building an internal routing team, these businesses can rely on NT’s experts to deliver daily, ready-to-run routes tailored to their operations. With flexible onboarding via spreadsheet, API, or other formats, customers can typically begin seeing benefits within just two weeks.
