Implementing Hub & Spoke process flows for Fleet business
Leveraging OTM’s single platform advantage

• Penske’s acquisition of Transfreight required us to enhance our model

• Key functionalities incorporated for Hub & Spoke:


– Utilizing an inter-connected cross dock network
– Executing shipments across multiple days and shared fleet assets for a single or multiple OD Pairs
– Executing an order shared across both private fleet and 3rd party carriers
– Centralizing the management of the shipments from hub locations
– Incorporating brokerage loads to leverage backhaul opportunities

Adding 3rd party carrier operations and management
Expanding OTM Fleet’s implementation framework

• Penske’s DCC business model utilizes private fleet assets and 3rd party carriers
• The framework was provisioned to consider the future requirements of the 3rd party carriers
• The introduction of carriers onto our fleet framework required additional complexity and expansion
of OTM’s functionalities
• The updated framework ensures a separation of workflows between private fleet and 3rd party
carriers
• The co-existence of two distinct paths are vital
• Our automated QA processes ensure the successful co-existence of these diversified operations
in one domain
