7266 Pitt Ohio, a transportation solutions provider headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, can now more proactively plan its business by creating routes, managing complex schedules, and monitoring progress throughout the day.  The company has licensed 50 ESRI's ArcGIS for Transportation Analytics solution, powered by the ArcGIS platform.

Pitt Ohio is a member of the Reliance Network, a group of regional carriers that work together to provide seamless service for customers. The company provides less-than-truckload, supply chain, ground, and truckload services. ArcGIS for Transportation Analytics will help the growing organisation support strategic business operations including optimised planning, real-time alerts, dispatching, and analysis after service.

"Our company has grown in the last three decades from a leader in less-than-truckload to a complete transportation solutions provider," said Scott Sullivan, of Pitt Ohio. "We needed to find a solution that helps us continue to drive optimization into our core processes. Esri's experience, industry leadership, and relationships with others in our industry were just what we were looking for in a solution partner."

"Transportation is inherently a geographic business," said Wolfgang Hall, logistics and supply chain industry manager at Esri. "We are pleased to be working with Pitt Ohio and look forward to helping it continue to grow and add value to its customers, employees, and business."
