The Problem
Alter had no universal fleet system across its locations — just paper, spreadsheets, and filing cabinets — so fleet managers traveled constantly just to gather basic information, with no way to enforce consistent maintenance or DOT standards.
The Solution
Link-X consolidated fleet data company-wide, digitized two years of historical paper records with AI invoice processing in about a month, and rolled out one set of best practices across every location.
“Link-X provides the most complete total solution, but their true advantage is their team.”
Mike Eddy, Senior Manager of Safety — Alter Trading
