ATA CEO Sees Good Days Ahead for the Industry
Summary
Pegasus TransTech is the leading provider of technologies that speed the flow of critical trucking documents and back office processes for transportation carriers and brokers.Nevertheless, Graves noted, those carriers who survived the depths of a recession that greatly reduced the ranks of truckers and thus of available capacity, are in an excellent position to prosper when the economy finally rebounds.However, the former two-term Kansas governor expressed concern over the apparent inability of Congress to agree on a transportation bill and the higher Interstate speed limits being posted in some states.Graves spoke at the 14th Annual Pegasus TransTech User Conference in Clearwater Beach, Fla., Wednesday.Since many cars travel at, say, 8 mph over the limit and trucks are often limited by fleets to 65 mph or lower, speed differentials can be a safety problem.Despite the challenges the industry faces, Graves concluded, trucking’s future looks bright.“I’m as optimistic as I can be,” he said.About Pegasus TransTechPegasus TransTech Corporation helps transportation companies go paperless, improve operating efficiency, speed cash flow, increase profit, and drive consistent, repeatable results by strategically creating images, electronic forms, and enterprise workflow solutions.TRANSFLO® software provides the back office solutions for document management and electronic workflow.TRANSFLO $Velocity is the electronic, consistent method for carriers to submit invoices and load documents to participating brokers to get paid faster.For additional information, please visit www.pegasustranstech.com or call 800-783-8649.
