The Challenge
Revolution Trucking, a third-party logistics and transportation services provider, aimed to differentiate itself by offering the ability to quickly compare real-time quotes from carriers to contracted rates, access to carrier capacity by lane and daily special rates, and complete transparency and documentation for their customers' freight management needs. However, they faced challenges in meeting time and budget constraints for shippers with the best possible service at the most favorable rates.

Case Study
Vehicle Fleet Analytics
Organizations frequently implement a maintenance strategy for their fleets of vehicles using a combination of time and usage based maintenance schedules. While effective as a whole, time and usage based schedules do not take into account driving patterns, environmental factors, and sensors currently deployed within the vehicle measuring crank voltage, ignition voltage, and acceleration, all of which have a significant influence on the overall health of the vehicle.In a typical fleet, a large percentage of road calls are related to electrical failure, with battery failure being a common cause. Battery failures result in unmet service agreement levels and costly re-adjustment of scheduled to provide replacement vehicles. To reduce the impact of unplanned maintenance, the transportation logistics company was interested in a trial of C3 Vehicle Fleet Analytics.
