• Interactive asset profitability report provides quick access to details
“This interactive report has data on lanes, orders, margin, drivers by category (company or owner- operator), drivers by name, locations, customers, and revenue codes. You can dig deeper anywhere in the report. Click on a particular lane and you’ll see a list of the drivers who hauled that lane. This is so much easier than trying to build this list without IQ.”
• All of these reports and dashboards can be viewed on mobile devices
“We give people access to these reports and dashboards on their phones or tablets. You can be in a meeting and pull up any bit of data you need right then and there. If you need to access some bit of information quickly while away from the office, it’s a snap.”
• Historical analysis helps us identify trends and prepare for the future ith some o
“With some of the information created by these reports and dashboards, you can create more accurate his understand
storical analysis. And if you can your history, you’re going to be in
better shape for forecasting the future. Based on the patterns of the past, you can tell what is likely to happen tomorrow, next week, and so on.”
• Staff input ensures the reports and dashboards have the right focus
“A collaborative approach to building reports and dashboards works best. Sit down with your managers and say, ‘Here’s the report I created. What are your thoughts?’ They’re likely to say, ‘Well, that looks great, but you know, I’d really like to see this also.’ Building these reports and dashboards in this way fosters buy-in. It helps with getting people to embrace the metrics.”
• It’s easy to learn how to use these tools
“If you’re comfortable with pivot tables, using IQ and Power BI is going to be pretty easy for you. The most critical point is to start small. You can get overwhelmed trying to do too much at once. In the beginning, I was taking a couple of hours a day, but then as I got better at it, I was spending only a half- hour. Now when I get a request from operations for new ways to view data I can create something in only a few minutes. Once you get the hang of it, it’s like second nature.”
