LTL Carrier in the Driver’s Seat with Oracle Cloud Fusion Financials
In many ways, the cloud has revolutionized businesses’ ability to work more effectively and efficiently. From reducing operational expenses to improved collaboration among employees and enhanced flexibility, the variety of benefits of cloud computing technologies has made cloud adoption an easy decision for organizations. In fact, it is estimated that 88% of enterprises have adopted cloud technology in some form, according to estimates from the research firm O’Reilly. The pandemic has only accelerated cloud adoption as 99% use at least one public or private cloud according to polling done by Flexera. Nearly universal adoption is largely a result of COVID-19, which forced many organizations — and their employees — to operate remotely.
Last year, this LTL carrier was seeking to leverage the flexibility that the cloud offers. Before working with Inspirage, the company had on-premises storage, with physical servers installed at their headquarters. Naturally, on-prem infrastructure requires workers to be on-site if they need to access information that is relevant to their tasks at hand.
Our client was also using a legacy enterprise resource planning solution called TruckMate. TruckMate is a software package that allows motor carriers to manage their day-to-day accounting processes, such as billing, dispatching, asset management, and maintenance. While it had allowed the organization to complete its various objectives, the on-prem nature of the solution made it impossible for employees to work remotely. With an increase in business resulting from the pandemic, our client needed to leverage every available resource, so staff were in a position to succeed.
