Atlas Freight — dispatch platform

Replaced a spreadsheet-and-phone dispatch process with a live load board and driver app across four terminals.

Challenge

Dispatch ran on spreadsheets and phone calls across four terminals — no live visibility into loads, and planner throughput capped by how fast someone could work the phones.

Approach

  • Discovery cut a third of the original scope to the core loop that actually moved the number: a live load board.
  • Built one connected system — load board, planner dashboard and driver app — instead of three tools that would need to agree with each other.
  • Rolled out across all four terminals without pausing live operations.

Results

  • Dispatch time down 41%.
  • 2.4× loads handled per planner.
  • Still the tool the team opens first every morning.
