Case Study: J.B. Hunt achieves rapid go-anywhere workforce deployment with MobileIron

With MobileIron, J.B. Hunt Drives Towards A “Go-Anywhere” Workforce

J.B. Hunt, a leading North American transportation and logistics company, needed a faster way to get a highly mobile workforce productive in new locations. Opening new sites had taken an average of 35 business days because the company waited for landlines and data circuits, and it needed a way to secure and manage employee‑owned iPhones while controlling airtime and preventing costly overages and security incidents.

Working with AT&T, J.B. Hunt implemented MobileIron to manage more than 1,200 iPhones and dozens of iPads, enabling rapid site turn‑ups, centralized policy control, and easy device registration. The solution cut deployment time from weeks to hours, supported a single‑device business/personal plan with payroll deductions and better carrier discounts, prevented international roaming overcharges with instant alerts, and provided remote wipe and real‑time security notifications—improving cost control, security, and workforce productivity.
