There is a lot of data that flows through trucking companies and when that data is put through some complex algorithms, it can help visualize where your trucking company is headed and how to fix future problems. Averitt Express uses Omnitracs to learn more about their drivers and how to better predict what happens out there on the road and how to prevent future issues. By using these algorithms, Averitt now has driver support teams whose main job is to communicate with the drivers if something happens and to work through it so drivers don’t feel punished and quit. Last year, machine learning changed Averitt’s driver turnover rate to 50%.
