National LTL Carrier Company maintains operational agility with Optym during COVID-19

Saia LTL Freight, a major LTL carrier, faced the challenge of maintaining operational agility and employee safety during the COVID-19 pandemic. They needed the ability to quickly shut down terminals with minimal disruption to their network and customers. To address this, they turned to their existing solution from vendor Optym, HaulPlan.

The solution from Optym leveraged HaulPlan's optimization modes, allowing Saia to conduct studies for diverting shipments and selecting alternative terminals. This enabled rapid network adjustments as conditions changed. With Optym's technology, Saia successfully navigated the pandemic, maintaining high service levels and ensuring the safety of employees and customers while saving time and money.
