According to Bob
Costello, chief economist and Vice President of the American Trucking
Associations, the trucking industry today is facing some significant
challenges. At ThoughtDrivers, we've gotten to work to provide
solutions for each.
The Driver Shortage.
According to many, driver shortages are the number-one challenge facing
the industry today, especially long-haul drivers. ThoughtDrivers'
solution? Drivers On Demand.
Supply and Demand.
Getting the balance right is always a challenge. You never want to have
more drivers than you need, but you don't have a crystal ball to let
you know what demand lies right around the corner. ThoughtDrivers'
solution? Drivers On Demand.
Tight Pricing, Escalating Costs.
While revenue has been growing since 2000, industry revenue is still 30
percent below what it was before deregulation. These days, fleets have
to operate more efficiently or get out of the business. Getting the
most out of your data, learning your strengths and weakness
company-wide and taking timely action are paramount. ThoughtDrivers'
solution? CUBE-IT Business Intelligence Software.
The Overall Economy.
Every expansion or contraction of the economy affects trucking—from
manufacturing, to the residential market, to inventory supply chains.
The keys to success in such sensitive times are to effectively manage
risk, maximize sales, and minimize inventory. ThoughtDrivers' solution?
SafetyBox Software and CUBE-IT Business Intelligence Software.
Decreased Efficiency.
A web of factors interact to affect trucking efficiency—from increased
congestion and fuel prices to struggles in routing and managing lengths
of hauls. As the industry prepares to meet the challenge of hauling
even more freight, identifying inefficiency becomes crucial to success.
