    It’s frustrating, but we try to have backup loads available. We also keep good relationships with brokers to help fill in gaps quickly.

    We set expectations upfront and trust our drivers to follow the plan unless they run into an issue. We check in only if they’re significantly off schedule.

    We’ve been using McLeod Software. It integrates with most of our systems and gives real-time tracking updates.

    Finding enough drivers is a big one. We often need to bring in temporary drivers, which adds another layer of complexity.

    We use a messaging system with check-ins at key points, like pick-up and delivery, to keep communication frequent but not too intrusive.

    Not completely. Automated systems help, but you still need human intuition for problem-solving, especially during unforeseen delays.
