Case Study: O & I Transport achieves $100K/year in wage savings and triples its fleet without adding staff with Axon Software

O & I Transport - Customer Case Study

O & I Transport Inc., a Dearborn, MI flatbed trucking company serving the steel and machinery industry, was overwhelmed by manual paperwork, fragmented billing and accounting systems, and frequent missed advances and check manipulation across 23 remote offices. In 2005 they turned to Axon Software for a fully integrated transportation management and financial solution to consolidate processes and support their owner-operator business model.

Axon Software implemented a single, integrated TMS/accounting system (including reporting tools like the Global Reporter and real-time payment controls) that stopped fictitious checks, removed manual entry errors, and gave agents instant visibility into truck movements. Axon Software’s solution saved O & I roughly $100,000 per year in wages (eliminating three positions), recovered tens of thousands in missed advances, and enabled fleet growth from about 80–125 trucks to over 300 without adding office staff.
