**Case Study · DOT Compliance**

## With Link-X, Alter efficiently tracks fleets and stays DOT compliant.

Automated fleet reporting and DOT compliance across 60+ locations.

- **33%** — R&M reduction
- **60+** — Locations
- **4,000+** — Assets tracked
- **20k+** — Invoices AI-processed

**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
