Openforce has played a defining role in supporting independent contractors and the 3PLs that work with them. Over the past 25 years, the company has introduced technologies and processes that have empowered contractors and 3PLs to grow and succeed. Openforce has effectively built a new industry around contractor relations and support—an area of critical importance that has rapidly moved to the forefront.
