Generating a competitive advantage through AI-driven applications for a transportation
provider
Our transportation client felt a strong need to optimize and automate many of their
manual and outdated planning processes, innovating the way they were doing business
along the way.
Sitting side-by-side with transportation planners, we set out to completely understand
‘a day in the life’ of our client and their key stakeholders. Pairing this
understanding with wider discussions about the future vision of the business inspired
us to create a dashboard of intelligent web applications both automating and optimizing
their daily operations. These high-powered custom products armed the business with
decision support to manage their assets, find optimal routes for delivery vehicles,
recommend the best spot market prices and make driver attrition predictions to address
their ongoing labor shortage issues.
As a result, transportation planners were running more optimal processes while being
freed up to spend the time needed to fix other unforeseen service issues for their
clients. In addition, the management has already seen a decrease in driver turnover
rates.
Since working with Opex Analytics, our client:
- Saw a 15% decrease in miles driven
- Was able to accept 5% more loads due to improved asset availability
- Saw a consistent decrease in driver turnover rates
