What Paragon's customers say about our routing and scheduling optimization, truck tracking, transportation management and strategic logistics modeling systems...
United Dairy Farmers - Stephen Cameron, Transportation Manager"As a direct result of Paragon we are now saving time and miles."
Ryder BrandsMart - Chris Kean"We have relied on Paragon software every day for the last five years to produce effective routes for our trucks and we simply couldn’t manage without it. It enables us to plan quickly and maintain efficiency through the seasonal peaks and troughs of the business. It has also made it possible for us to more than double the size of the operation without putting extra pressure on our planning function. In addition to this, we get excellent support from the Paragon team when we need it – they reacted very quickly to get the system back up and running after we’d suffered computer failure and data loss following severe weather conditions."
TRACKER Network - Denis Murphy, Operations Manager"The direct link between our service booking system and Paragon means we can avoid offering customer appointments that don't fit efficiently with other visits already committed. Overall, we have achieved a 22% reduction in fuel costs."
DHL Exel Supply Chain Australia - Richard Phillips, Director of Transportation Services, Australia and New Zealand"We have used Paragon as a tactical planning tool in Europe for many years. Taking it to new geographies has shown the versatility and depth of the software. As DHL Exel Supply Chain grows in Australia we will be using the platform as the backbone of our TMS strategy."
McLane Company - Jim VonAchen, Transportation Network Planning Manager"I use Paragon software to plan and manage our 1,200-truck delivery operation to retail outlets across the US – I’d recommend both the software and the company to anyone wanting to achieve cost benefits from efficient transportation planning."
