Case Study: Southern Specialties Transportation scales 10x and slashes DSO by 25 days with Axon Software

Southern Specialties Transportation - Customer Case Study

Southern Specialties Transportation, an oilfield trucking and rental services company based in Estherwood, Louisiana, faced rapid expansion—from 12 trucks to 120 trucks, 100 pieces of rental equipment, 200 employees and revenue growth from $9M to $43M—which strained dispatching, asset tracking, billing and reporting. To scale operations and gain real‑time visibility, they adopted Axon real‑time trucking software.

Axon delivered an integrated dispatch‑to‑billing system with robust reporting and per‑unit cost tracking, enabling remote, real‑time collaboration across locations. As a result, Southern Specialties improved utilization and margins, cut DSO from roughly 65–70 days to about 42–45 days, ran a lean office (15 staff vs an estimated 30 without Axon), and supported tenfold business growth without proportional headcount increases.
