Conference Roundup: Highlights From Uber Freight, Trimble, and McLeod
The past month has been a whirlwind for the Optimal Dynamics team, as we participated in three major industry events: Uber Freight’s Deliver 2024, Trimble Transportation Insight, and the McLeod Software User Conference. Here’s a look at some of the highlights from these shows:
Uber Freight Deliver 2024
Our team traveled to Frisco, TX, earlier this month for Uber Freight’s Deliver 2024, where Optimal Dynamics CEO Daniel Powell joined Uber Freight’s Alyssa Correale , Jeff Resch , and Ryan Falise for a session on supercharging dedicated fleets. The discussion highlighted how automation and decision intelligence are transforming fleet management and driving operational improvements.
Trimble Insight?
In Las Vegas, we were excited to be part of the Trimble Transportation Insight Tech Conference, where our team demoed the power of our decision automation platform. The event’s Industry Showdown featured our very own Drew O'Neill and Joseph Pricer, while Christopher DeMillo from Leonard's Express and representatives from Motorcity Systems joined us to share their experiences using Optimal Dynamics. It was a great opportunity to connect with industry leaders and demonstrate how we’re automating decision-making for enterprise trucking companies.
McLeod Software User Conference
We had a fantastic time in Charlotte, NC, connecting with McLeod customers and showcasing how our platform is helping optimize freight planning. A highlight of the event was the fireside chat between our CEO, Daniel Powell, and Brock F. from CRST The Transportation Solution, Inc., where they explored how decision automation transformed CRST's team, operations, and KPIs.?
