Challenge

Having access to critical information

Gary Weiner, President: "Our customers’ satisfaction is our highest priority. In order to support this vision, we have invested heavily in our people, equipment, and technology to continue my father’s legacy. The AMCS software is great for crawl, walk and run. We are running pretty hard right now after 15 years and we see all kinds of opportunities to do it better and to continue to stay innovative."

Solution

"The most exciting thing for us was when AMCS introduced a mobile solution that integrates with our Enterprise Management solution. In the past, everything was a manual process.  Deploying mobile devices to our field service group was really transformative."

Solution

Having visibility into our daily operations

Rob Suessmann, Logistic Manager; "The most exciting thing for us was when AMCS introduced a mobile solution that integrates with our Enterprise Management solution. In the past, everything was a manual process. Deploying mobile devices to our field service group was really transformative."

"We are able to track the beginning of the order at the dispatch department and process it all the way through to the driver’s mobile app and then back to the home office. For us, knowing where the trucks are at any given time has allowed us to handle on-call and emergency status work. By pinpointing the location of the vehicles and what their capabilities are, we can delegate the work more efficiently to the appropriate resource and therefore making our response to our customers much better."

Results

"The Enterprise Management solution has been the heart of our operation. The real benefit for us is having visibility on what is going on daily in our entire operations. With 200 vehicles on the road, there is a lot of moving parts with coordinating, arranging, and re-arranging schedules and we need to do this in the most cost-effective and efficient way possible."

The Enterprise Management Solution has been the heart of our operation.

The company no longer has to print and distribute daily routes for every driver, because they are generated electronically for the field. "We had a particular cover sheet we eliminated, and I did the calculation on the cost of the toner, the collating time, the handling time, the cost of the paper, and it added up really quickly," Weiner says. "Just eliminating that one printed sheet saved us about $20,000 annually." Watch the video to see how Russel Reids benefits from AMCS solutions.
