Case Study: Crete Carrier achieves centralized data access and automated, faster BI reporting with Fortra’s Sequel Data Access

SEQUEL Provides a Complete Data Access Solution for Crete Carrier Corporation

Crete Carrier Corporation, one of the largest privately held U.S. truckload carriers formed from several merged companies, needed to centralize and simplify data processing across its subsidiaries to support diverse services and hundreds of users. They faced high data volume and varied formats (including Julian dates) and required timely, consolidated reporting and easy web/email distribution of operational information.

HelpSystems’ Sequel Data Access provided a centralized repository, easy-to-build views, report writer and web interface to pull and transform data from multiple company databases, handle date conversions, and integrate with CL programs. The solution automated weekly operational dashboards and emailed reports, sped up ad hoc analysis, delivered significant time savings, and—backed by responsive support—improved company-wide visibility and decision-making.
