Analytics for Trucking and Logistics

Trucking companies collect terabytes of data every month, yet most leadership teams still make decisions based on lagging spreadsheets and gut instinct. ELD devices stream location and engine data continuously, TMS platforms log every load tender and invoice, and fuel cards capture every fill-up. The problem is rarely a lack of data; it is the absence of a system that stitches these sources together and surfaces the metrics that matter most: revenue per mile, cost per stop, driver utilization, on-time percentage, and lane profitability.

Adapter specializes in building analytics solutions tailored to the trucking and logistics operating model. We start by mapping your key performance indicators to the data sources that feed them, then design ETL pipelines that pull from your TMS (whether it is TMW, McLeod, or a custom system), ELD provider, fuel card network, and accounting platform. The result is a unified data warehouse that powers interactive dashboards accessible to dispatchers, fleet managers, and executives alike. We also build automated alerting systems that notify the right person when a trailer sits idle for too long, a lane turns unprofitable, or a driver approaches an HOS violation.

Beyond dashboards, we help logistics organizations adopt advanced analytics techniques like cohort analysis for shipper retention, regression models for fuel cost forecasting, and geospatial analysis for terminal placement. Every solution is designed to integrate with your existing workflow rather than forcing your team onto a new platform. Whether you need a lightweight Power BI deployment or a fully custom analytics application, Adapter delivers insights that translate directly into margin improvement and operational efficiency.
