A multi-billion dollar 3PL serving the oil and gas sector integrated FourKites with its TMS to gain real-time visibility across large national and small local carriers. Super-user training enabled internal teams to manage the platform independently. The solution reduced check calls, allowed higher shipment volumes at lower cost, and improved customer transparency through encrypted link sharing.
