EFFEN TRUCKING OPS · OPS MONEY REVIEW

Find where your money is hiding — and get it back in 30 days.

For fleets of 10–100 trucks: we review your dispatch, fleet, maintenance, billing, spreadsheet, and inbox data to find missed revenue, deadhead, overdue work, billing delays, and preventable leaks — then help you recover the money.

PROOF · REAL CARRIER

What we found for Wolf River Express.

Examples below are based on real ops analysis from Wolf River Express. Public version pending customer approval.

Fuel surcharge leak

~$48K/month

FSC was running at 9.1% of revenue when comparable lanes should be closer to 12–18%. That’s the estimated monthly gap.

Deadhead trap

+$7,026found that week

7 Chicago-bound loads in one week. 3 had no return assigned while 13 IL/WI backhauls were available nearby. Annualized gap: $280K–$445K.

Maintenance risk

$240K90-day burn

20 units had expired DOT inspections. 116 of 317 scheduled PMs were overdue. 87% of the spend was reactive work.

System mismatch

5 of 39tractors

5 tractors had stale or broken telematics links between fleet and tracking systems. Bad joins create bad PM, dispatch, compliance, and location decisions.

“They found money and risk hiding between systems we were already checking every day.”
Spencer Harris · Owner/Operator, Wolf River Express

WHY NOTHING CATCHES IT

Your systems aren’t hiding the money. They just don’t surface it as something you can act on.

Each tool does its job. None of them turn their slice into the one decision that protects margin — so the money leaks in the gaps between them.

Dispatch & TMS Loads, lanes, and statuses on a board. The loads quietly bleeding margin — unpaired backhauls, mispriced lanes, missing fuel surcharge. In dollars.
ELD & Telematics Hours, GPS pings, and movement. HOS and driver risk on the loads you’re dispatching today, before it becomes a violation.
Fleet & Maintenance A PM list and DOT dates. The units about to cost you a fine or a reactive repair, ranked by exposure.
Accounting & Cash Invoices and AR aging. Cash stuck in billing holds and aging you won’t get to in time — with the follow-up drafted.
Spreadsheets & Inbox Where the exceptions get parked. Those exceptions pulled into one operator view and turned into next actions.

The money leaks between them.

Effen Trucking Ops connects the evidence across all of it and tells you what to fix first — in dollars.

WHAT WE PLUG INTO

We start with the stack you already run.

Run these and we have a path. Run something else? It’s a category we cover — here’s what we can work from now and what’s next. We start with approved data first, then turn findings into controlled next actions.

Dispatch / TMS TransportPro McLeod · Rose Rocket · Trimble · & more
ELD & Telematics Geotab Motive · Samsara · Platform Science · Omnitracs · Verizon Connect · EROAD · Trimble
Fleet Maintenance / EAM Fleetrock · LynxFleet Fleetio · Whip Around · Fullbay
Accounting & Cash Exports / approved data NetSuite · QuickBooks · Axon
Load Boards / Freight DAT · Truckstop
Fuel Tax / IFTA Computed from your ELD + TMS
Admin & Comms Google Workspace · Email · Spreadsheets We wire up to anything with an export or an API
Approved data first

We start with what is safest: exports, reports, portals, and approved read access. API/write workflows come after the leak is proven and the action path is approved.

Not just reading

Insights, operational management, and draft next actions — from emails to tasks to notes — so the finding can become controlled work instead of another report.

HOW THE OPS REVIEW WORKS

Four steps to money back in the account.

We help 10–100 truck fleets recover money they can’t find — because they can’t justify a full-time analyst, and the team they have doesn’t have time to hunt it. For the ones who do, we hand that time back for sales and new customers.

  1. 01

    Tell us what you run

    TMS, ELD/telematics, fleet, accounting, spreadsheets, email.

  2. 02

    We confirm the target

    Deadhead, billing delay, FSC leakage, PM risk, AR, dispatch exceptions.

  3. 03

    We run the ops review

    Read-only first. Exports, portals, or a secure intake link — whatever’s safest.

  4. 04

    Start getting it back

    Found dollars, risk, proof, and approved next steps — aimed at action inside 30 days.

WHO IT’S FOR

Built for 10–100 truck fleets, not enterprise data teams.

A FIT IF YOU

  • Run 10–100 trucks across a TMS, ELD/telematics, and spreadsheets.
  • Know expensive things slip through the cracks between those systems.
  • Can’t justify a full-time ops analyst watching every board and exception.

NOT A FIT IF YOU

  • Run an enterprise carrier with a full internal data team already.
  • Run 1–5 trucks with no systems to operate across.
  • Want a TMS replacement or one-click self-serve onboarding.
