Case Study: Flyers Energy achieves paperless, optimized deliveries and $85,000 annual savings with Trimble

Flyers Energy - Customer Case Study

Flyers Energy is an oil and renewable energy company (founded 1979, headquartered in Auburn, CA) that operates its own transport fleet to deliver finished product goods across California and Nevada. The company relied on printed spreadsheets and Word documents handed to drivers for route planning, a laborious and error-prone paper system that made dispatching inefficient and limited the ability to optimize its distribution network.

Flyers implemented Trimble’s TMW.Suite, routing and dispatching software and a mobile platform in its trucks to streamline fuel order management, enable real-time delivery assignments and optimize shift-based scheduling. The new, centralized platform eliminated hardcopy documentation, integrated back-office systems for automatic real-time data export, improved reporting accuracy, and allowed Flyers to process more orders with fewer staff. The company estimates about $85,000 in annual savings and has seen a 50% reduction in accidents and a 15–20% increase in daily load count.
