(Cedar Rapids, Iowa, January 2024) – TrueNorth Companies, a leader in risk management solutions for transportation companies, is thrilled to announce a groundbreaking partnership with Haul, the premier modern fleet risk management platform. This exclusive collaboration marks a pivotal moment in the Final Mile industry, providing innovative solutions beyond insurance to address critical challenges faced by businesses in this sector.
The Final Mile industry grapples with operational inefficiencies, high equipment rental volumes, interchange agreements, and other complexities that hinder seamless operations. TrueNorth's partnership with Haul aims to transform the landscape by introducing unique, comprehensive solutions that go beyond traditional insurance offerings.
Industry Challenges Addressed:
- Seamless Tracking and Reporting: No method to seamlessly track and report contract carrier vehicles, leading to operational delays and duplicative costs.
- Visibility and Verification: Lack of visibility and verification creates risk management issues for 3PLs in the white glove threshold delivery space.
- Insurance Limitations: Insurance companies restrict coverage to scheduled auto policies, leading to increased claims denial and rising insurance costs.
TrueNorth’s Response:
Through this groundbreaking partnership, TrueNorth Companies gains the capability to provide FMCSA/DOT managed compliance services to Contract Carriers, monitor compliance in real-time, and deploy OCR technology for vehicle reporting and tracking. TrueNorth's Final Mile Practice Leader, Peter Berg, expressed enthusiasm, stating, "As a leader in risk management, TrueNorth is thrilled to join forces with Haul. This collaboration enables us to provide comprehensive compliance services to our Final Mile partners, revolutionizing industry solutions beyond insurance."
