Amanda has been able to make operational changes to improve productivity through automated processes. Amanda’s presentation will focus on the problems she set out to solve with technology at Quality Transport, how she approached implementation and adoption, and how the result helps her “cut through the noise” and zero in on actionable insights.

Ryan Camacho has worked for several high-profile logistic software companies, such as Oz Development, Descartes System Group, Kuebix, and Trimble.
