The client faced several challenges in managing their growing operations, including:

1. Inefficient Dispatching: Owner-operators often struggled with finding profitable loads, facing inconsistent lane availability and delayed booking.
2. Financial Tracking & Receivables: Managing invoicing, receivables, and factoring manually was time-consuming and prone to errors, which delayed payments and strained cash flow.
3. Scalability: As the number of trucks in operation grew, the existing processes could not scale effectively, leading to missed opportunities and unoptimized workflows.

These challenges impacted operational efficiency, cash flow, and overall profitability, causing frustration for owner-operators and limiting their growth potential.
