About The Customer
The article discusses two companies, Green Circle Growers and Vesta Freight. Green Circle Growers is a company that is planning to leverage 3Gtms to support additional logistics services provided by the Fresh2U Transportation organization. They are currently working on process flows and documenting those processes in order to adapt the 3Gtms transportation management system to its future LSP needs. Vesta Freight, on the other hand, is a startup freight brokerage founded by industry veterans who recognized a significant market opportunity. Their collective experience had taught them to establish strong business processes before ever booking the first load and Vesta was committed to building a solid foundation for scalable, and sustainable business growth starting day one.
The Challenge
Green Circle Growers is planning to leverage 3Gtms to support additional logistics services provided by the Fresh2U Transportation organization. The company is currently working on process flows and documenting those processes in order to adapt the 3Gtms transportation management system to its future LSP needs. On the other hand, Vesta Freight, a startup freight brokerage founded by industry veterans, recognized a significant market opportunity. They were committed to building a solid foundation for scalable, and sustainable business growth starting day one. For Vesta, the first investment was the right TMS. They selected 3G’s TMS and leveraged its Smart Start templated implementation.
The Solution
Vesta Freight selected 3G’s TMS and leveraged its Smart Start templated implementation. It was an ideal fit for the company’s needs because it brought the basic brokerage workflows, functions, and integrations virtually every broker needs with a rapid implementation. 3G’s implementation team was always on hand, ready and waiting to answer questions, provide guidance, and set appropriate configurations. The investment made in 3G’s TMS represents another important Vesta value: Doing right by carriers, too. When it comes to supporting carrier partners, good intentions alone aren’t enough – technology plays a significant role. Accurate, timely communications. Speedy invoice processing & settlement. Superior reporting. These allow Vesta to easily receive invoices and make payments immediately upon proof of delivery.

Case Study
IoT-based Fleet Intelligence Innovation
Speed to market is precious for DRVR, a rapidly growing start-up company. With a business model dependent on reliable mobile data, managers were spending their lives trying to negotiate data roaming deals with mobile network operators in different countries. And, even then, service quality was a constant concern.
Case Study
Vehicle Fleet Analytics
Organizations frequently implement a maintenance strategy for their fleets of vehicles using a combination of time and usage based maintenance schedules. While effective as a whole, time and usage based schedules do not take into account driving patterns, environmental factors, and sensors currently deployed within the vehicle measuring crank voltage, ignition voltage, and acceleration, all of which have a significant influence on the overall health of the vehicle.In a typical fleet, a large percentage of road calls are related to electrical failure, with battery failure being a common cause. Battery failures result in unmet service agreement levels and costly re-adjustment of scheduled to provide replacement vehicles. To reduce the impact of unplanned maintenance, the transportation logistics company was interested in a trial of C3 Vehicle Fleet Analytics.
Case Study
Zonar Takes the Wheel with a M2M Solution
Zonar’s fleet management solutions collect, report and analyze data before, during and after a vehicle’s trip. The company needed Machine-to-Machine (M2M) connectivity to enable communication between in-vehicle devices and back-end systems. To deliver high volumes of potentially sensitive information from and to moving vehicles – and keep pace with its rapid business growth – Zonar wanted a highly secure solution that it could easily manage and that had the required national and global reach.
