Adopt new tech, and you’ll run a more efficient operation... right? But what happens when your trucking tech stack becomes unmanageable...?

In this episode, we ask, how can we cut down on these redundancies? How can carriers, shippers and logistics companies better connect these disparate data streams and work together more efficiently? To get answers, we talk with Trimble CEO Rob Painter to discuss the company’s continued investment in the freight transportation industry and its vision for a more connected supply chain. Tune in.
