We have worked with several consultants over the years, and KSM Transport Advisors (KSMTA) is truly a cut above the rest. While many consultants will try to “strong arm” you into buying into their recommendations, KSMTA most certainly doesn’t operate that way. In fact, I felt as though they became a fully integrated part of our team. They are able to leverage their industry experience and tools to deliver options that are well thought out, quantified, and most important, can be realistically implemented. They offer real-world solutions to real-world problems.

Working with David Roush has been an invaluable experience. David worked with us in the details of our business, but also guided us at a higher, strategic level. In both instances, TransCorr was led in a better direction. David's experience in the trucking industry is vast, and he used that knowledge to help us in many different business scenarios. With KSM Transport Advisor's (KSMTA) help, we have been able to improve our LH/Mile by $0.14 within 12 months. And with David's guidance, we were able to more strategically develop a new market.

Our company, Kane is Able, had experienced significant change in our operations as the result of adjustments to the recession, as well as undergoing cultural change as the company transitions from a family-operated company to a company with non-family professional management.

I have spent 20 years helping truckload carriers all across North America with the problem of identifying which shippers and lanes at various rates and volumes make up the best freight mix; yield management. One of the most valuable lessons learned over my years is that there's both a science and an art to freight mix optimization.
