## Short answer

Pacejet runs multi-carrier parcel and LTL rate shopping and shipping inside NetSuite, and 3Gtms adds transportation planning that consolidates orders and chooses mode and carrier. It is a Built for NetSuite SuiteApp, so users work from NetSuite records.

## Erp

Oracle NetSuite

## Erp Key

netsuite

## On Prem

false

## Product

Pacejet (3Gtms Pacejet Transportation Planning)

## Vendor

3Gtms

## Category

Shipping / multi-carrier and TMS

## Integration

**Method:** Built for NetSuite SuiteApp

**Detail:** Pacejet is installed as a SuiteApp and is described as achieving Built for NetSuite status for the transportation planning offering. Shipping actions occur from NetSuite fulfillment and order screens.

## Data Flows

**From:** NetSuite sales order or fulfillment

**To:** Pacejet

**Data:** Items, weights, ship-to, requested service

**Trigger:** Rate request or fulfillment packing

**From:** Pacejet

**To:** NetSuite

**Data:** Rates, labels, tracking and freight charges

**Trigger:** Shipment processed

**From:** NetSuite orders

**To:** Transportation planning

**Data:** Open orders to consolidate by lane and date

**Trigger:** Planning run

**From:** Planning

**To:** NetSuite

**Data:** Selected mode, carrier and load

**Trigger:** Plan accepted

## Setup

### Install the SuiteApp

**Detail:** Install in a sandbox and assign the roles shipping and planning users need.

### Connect carriers

**Detail:** Add parcel and LTL accounts and contracted rate tables.

### Prepare item data

**Detail:** Maintain weight, dimensions, freight class and packaging on items.

### Map ship methods and rules

**Detail:** Map NetSuite methods to Pacejet services and define carrier selection rules.

### Configure locations

**Detail:** Set ship-from locations and pickup details for each warehouse.

### Decide on planning scope

**Detail:** Pilot rate shopping first, then add consolidation and mode selection.

### Test and cut over

**Detail:** Run live shipments in parallel for a short period and reconcile freight cost.

## Pitfalls

- Item dimension and freight class gaps produce wrong LTL rates.
- Rate tables that are out of date cause margin surprises.
- Ship method mapping differences between sales orders and fulfillments give inconsistent carriers.
- Consolidation that ignores customer delivery windows creates late orders.
- Multi-location ship-from setup errors produce incorrect origin rates.

## Ai Layer

### Carrier decision review

**Description:** A private assistant explains why a carrier was chosen on a shipment and flags cases where a cheaper compliant option existed, for logistics to review.

### Freight spend questions

**Description:** It answers spend by lane, carrier and customer from NetSuite and Pacejet data, with the query visible.

### Item data audit

**Description:** It finds items with missing dimensions or classes before they cause rating errors.

## Alternatives

- ShipHawk is another NetSuite shipping SuiteApp with similar rate shopping.
- A single-carrier native integration is enough when you use one carrier.
- If you have a dedicated TMS already, integrate it instead of adding planning here.

## Faq

### Is Pacejet inside NetSuite?

**Answer:** Yes. It is delivered as a SuiteApp, so rating and shipping occur on NetSuite transactions rather than in a separate application.

### What does the transportation planning add?

**Answer:** Beyond rating a single shipment, 3Gtms describes planning that consolidates orders and chooses mode and carrier. It adds value mainly when you ship many orders over shared lanes.

### What data matters most?

**Answer:** Accurate item weights, dimensions and freight classes, plus current carrier rate tables. Rating errors usually trace back to those rather than to the software.
