Enabling a Transport Organization in Canada to Globalize Their Company

About the Client

Speedy Transport started small and grew fast.

Founded in 1941 as a local, same-day parcel pick-up and delivery service, Speedy Transport has grown to become one of central Canada’s premier carriers. In the early years, motorcycles with sidecars delivered small parcels in downtown Toronto. Currently, sophisticated transport services operate from terminals along the Windsor-Quebec City 401 corridor.

Their facilities were built with LTL distribution in mind.

Their head office is conveniently located in Toronto, Ontario with a 100,000 square foot cross-dock facility acting as the central distribution hub. With a fleet of over 450+ owner operators and 500+ employees, they provide fast and effective distribution throughout Ontario, Quebec and the balance of Canada. They currently operate out of 7 main terminals with an additional 3 currently being constructed.

Their commitment to delivering customer satisfaction is driven by their company’s most valuable asset—their people.

The Challenge

Speedy Transport had an entire office filled with filling cabinets, and they were using very basic software with limited reporting capabilities that did not allow them to capture enough details. They were looking for a one stop shop to streamline their maintenance and safety compliance costs in one system.

The Solution

In 2012, Speedy Transport began their search for a solution and implemented Collective Data in 2013. The ability for Collective Data’s software’s capability to house all data, especially accidents and driver reports, in one place for ease of access was a huge factor in Speedy Transport’s decision to implement Collective Data. They now have the ability to use Object Revolution to customize their system to fit their unique needs. They have heavily modified their accidents and incidents views to streamline and match their already existing internal processes.

Fleet Management Case Studies

Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office

CPSO evaluated numerous software before ultimately choosing Collective Data. They found that some did not provide the essentials of what they were looking for and others were overboard with things that we were never going to use. They decided that Collective Data was the right fit for what we are looking to achieve.

Chatham County Police Department

Collective Data won over the evaluation committee with its focus on law enforcement and its needs and its ease of use. The price was just right, and Collective Data could do everything and more that they needed.

Colorado State Patrol

The Colorado State Patrol’s (CSP) main mission is to directly support the State Troopers in the form of supplying them with radios, cell phones, and laptops they require for daily operations. As the IT Communications branch of the Colorado State Patrol, they rely heavily on CollectiveData to account for all of their radio equipment issued out to Troopers, as well as Port of Entry Officers for the entire state.

Chandler Police Department

Chandler Police Department has been able to accurately track their inventory without items falling through the cracks, track who has what equipment, when it’s due back for retirement, maintenance or replacement, and set automatic email notifications and reports in order to keep their employees safe without missing anything.

Marion County Public Schools

Marion County Public Schools streamlines their fleet management processes, stays ahead of preventative maintenance and accurately tracks parts inventory and improved technician productivity with time tracking.

Citizens Energy Group

Importing fleet data into one central data hub has allowed this broad-based utility service company to simplify data access for internal and external service staff.
