Data Case Study
Turnover numbers dropped for 2 reasons our hands on involvement
with the drivers and carriers using the data we collect to affect change.
Below are samples of how our clients have used data to affect turnover:
• Point 1
– Trucks not being properly cleaned at assignment
– Prior to our involvement this was an “unproven” issue
– Our work enabled the carrier to pinpoint an actual number
– Led the carrier to change their truck assignment procedures
• Point 2
– Carriers inability to move a driver from one division to another led to terms
– Our data showed this was a significant issue
– Carrier has since started to accommodate drivers more quickly and has
significantly improved on that issue
