Case Study: Crawford Trucking Inc. scales to 50 trucks and streamlines operations without adding office staff with Prophesy Transportation Solutions' Prophesy Dispatch

Long-time Prophesy customer sees continued success with Prophesy Dispatch

Crawford Trucking Inc., a Des Moines–based dry van TL carrier, was facing "utter chaos" as growth outpaced its manual systems—dispatchers were managing an expanding operation with spreadsheets and notebooks and the original 8‑truck setup could no longer be sustained. To solve this, owner Gregg Ryan selected Prophesy Transportation Solutions and implemented Prophesy Dispatch (with the QuickBooks® interface) to replace their fragmented processes.

Prophesy Transportation Solutions delivered Prophesy Dispatch along with expert Training & Consulting for a quick, IT‑light deployment and modular expansion. Crawford doubled its Prophesy user licenses and added modules like Advanced Fleet Maintenance, Document Imaging, Truck Tracking and a SQL upgrade; the company grew to a 50‑truck fleet and 60 employees, increased revenues, streamlined operations, mitigated fuel‑cost impacts, and avoided adding office staff.
