Case Study: Bert Baxter Transport Ltd achieves major fleet expansion and eliminates the need for 20 administrative staff with Axon Software

Bert Baxter Transport Ltd - Customer Case Study

Bert Baxter Transport Ltd., a family-owned trucking company in Estevan, Saskatchewan, faced growing administrative and accounting burdens as it expanded. To address manual double-entry, payroll headaches and the need for better fleet and satellite integration, they adopted Axon Software in 1998 to handle fleet accounting, payroll and an interface to the Omnitracs satellite system.

Axon Software automated invoicing, accounts payable, payroll, asset tracking and executive briefing screens, giving managers immediate access to job and financial data. As a result, Bert Baxter grew from about 12–15 trucks to roughly 135 while avoiding the need for about 20 additional administrative employees, improving customer service and daily financial visibility — benefits the company says have “paid for itself many, many times over.”
