Final-mile delivery, drayage, and over-the-road trucking each have their unique challenges, and Brian provided expert commentary on how effective routing can address these issues and enhance overall efficiency.

Brian shared valuable strategies for leveraging technology and data analytics to solve this problem, aiming to improve routing accuracy and visibility in real-time.
