Tony Trocki
Vice President of Transportation at Evans Distribution Systems
The things that are important to me are: how do we reduce clicks? How do we reduce processing time for our users? How do we automate tasks? And how do we have better visibility to what’s happening that can make us safer, more productive. Those are the types of things that we focus on in transportation and that Trimble helps us with.
Stephanie Johnson
Director of Operations Integrity at Crowley
The strategic move to implement Freight Audit was about much more than processing invoices. We wanted to transform our logistics into a truly 'sound' and intelligent system. It needed to reflect our commitment to kaizen and our need for accurate data to make fact-based decisions, reinforcing our core values of continuous improvement.
