Approyo SAP HANA Case Study: Saving the Trucking Industry with SAP HANA

The American trucking industry is critical to the lives of every person living in the United States. If the trucks stopped rolling, the grocery store shelves would be empty within 48 hours. And yet, this industry is still run with technology built during deregulation in the 1980’s. AS/400 based operating systems are commonplace, and even the more modern systems are built on technology platforms that are over 10 years old.

Covenant Transportation Group (CTG) is a top 50 for hire carrier in the trucking industry. With three asset based operating companies and 3500 drivers, it has a 30 year history of serving a variety of market segments and customers.  In early 2014, CTG decided to commit to a new technology initiative: predictive modeling and advanced analytics. After a competitive bidding process, CTG selected the SAP Predictive Analytics package over SAS and IBM SPSS solutions. It quickly became apparent that to get the most out of this software suite, speed and power on the database side would be critical.

Enter SAP HANA powered by Approyo for CTG. By harnessing the power of SAP HANA and taking relevant weather, driver, critical event, routing and logistic data and creating one of a kind predictive analysis, CTG is able to get the right driver matched to the right freight, supported in the right way to get from the shipper to the receiver safely, efficiently, and happily.

What are the key benefits to move now to SAP S/4HANA?

SAP S/4HANA is designed to drive instant value across lines of business and industries with the ultimate sophistication: simplicity.

From a business value perspective, this means that SAP S/4HANA creates unique opportunities to reinvent business models and drive new revenues and profits. First, companies can now easily connect to people, devices, and business networks to deliver new value to their customers on any channel – the Internet of Things and Big Data become accessible to any business. Second, companies can dramatically simplify their processes, drive them in real time and change them as needed to gain new efficiencies – no more batch processing is required. And finally, business users can now get any insight on any data from anywhere in real-time: planning, execution, prediction, and simulation – decisions may be made on the fly with a high level of granularity for faster business impact.

From an IT value perspective, this means that SAP S/4HANA creates unique opportunities to simplify the landscape and help reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) with SAP HANA as the great simplifier. First, companies can now reduce their data footprint and work with larger data sets in one system (for example, ERP, CRM, SRM, SCM, PLM co-deployed) to save hardware costs, operational costs, and time. Second, innovation is also made simple with an open platform to drive advanced applications – for example, predicting, recommending, and simulating – while protecting existing investments. Third, business users can leverage a simple and role-based user experience based on modern design principles which minimizes training efforts while increases productivity.
