Qargo has been a godsend.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2014 <em>Conor Sheridan, IT &amp; Transport Lead at RTS<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>About Road Truck Services <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Road Truck Services is a fast-growing Irish logistics provider offering a unique combination of transport, warehousing and customs services. Operating across Ireland, the UK and mainland Europe, the company delivers reliable, integrated services that help customers streamline supply chains and grow with confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>How they found Qargo<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before joining Road Truck Services, IT &amp; Transport Manager Conor Sheridan had already seen a Qargo demo and was impressed by its integration with Clarus WMS.  When Conor was tasked with reviewing options for a new TMS, Qargo\u2019s partnership with Clarus stood out immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt was the only system that integrated out of the box with our warehouse system, and that made all the difference.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Onboarding&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a critical situation, Qargo delivered what Conor describes as \u201ca godsend.\u201d With face-to-face support from Qargo\u2019s Irish team, Cus Curran, the business went live in just two weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cCus sat with us day and night until everything was running. We honestly don\u2019t know how we managed it, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/platform\/platform-tms-onboarding\/\">but we did in two weeks.\u201d\u00a0<\/a> Drivers adapted instantly thanks to Qargo\u2019s intuitive mobile app, available in multiple languages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019ve hired 6\u20137 new drivers since, every one of them picked it up within a day.\u201d Multiple languages in the driver app have notably been a huge help for an international team.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The challenge<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The team\u2019s previous TMS was holding them back. Reliability issues with missing ePODs meant delivery proofs frequently failed to register, ultimately putting customer relationships at a huge risk.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The RTS drivers struggled repeatedly with clunky apps slowing overall operations. And planning was also painfully slow, taking 4-5 hours every evening to prepare routes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The solution<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With Qargo in place, Road Truck Services gained:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Intuitive planning with live map view- a team favourite<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Customisable POD templates to meet client branding requirements<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mobile driver app with real-time photo and signature capture<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Warehouse-to-transport automation via the Qargo to Clarus API<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Route optimisation\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cPlanning that used to take five hours now takes one. Sometimes we get orders at 5pm and everything is ready by 5:20.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Integrations<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Qargo has become the hub of Road Truck Services\u2019 operation, connecting seamlessly with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Clarus WMS (warehouse management)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sage 50 (accounting)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Telematics &amp; fridge monitoring systems<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These integrations removed overly manual steps and gave&nbsp; RTS a single, smooth connected workflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cQargo was the only system that integrated out of the box with our operation, and it\u2019s transformed how we run the business.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The results<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2705 Route planning time cut by 80% (from 5 hours to 1 hour)<br>\u2705 Reliable and timely ePODs eliminated customer complaints<br>\u2705 Drivers trained and onboarded instantly<br>\u2705 Seamless integrations reduced admin and custom reporting<br>\u2705 Retained green gold certification thanks to CO\u2082 reporting in Qargo<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sustainability impact<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Qargo\u2019s built-in CO\u2082 emissions calculations proved to be an unexpected advantage for Road Truck Services. When the business underwent its annual FTA assessment, the ability to accurately measure and report emissions helped it retain its prestigious <a href=\"https:\/\/greengoldlabel.com\/\">Green Gold certification.&nbsp;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This recognition not only demonstrates the company\u2019s core commitment to sustainability but also strengthens its position when bidding for bigger &amp; new contracts, where environmental performance and accountability is increasingly a weighing factor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How Qargo has helped<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Qargo gave Road Truck Services the reliability, automation and all-important integrations it needed to scale without compromise. In a competitive transport market, the ability to plan faster, serve customers better and meet environmental standards has become a true differentiator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFrom what we had to where we are now, it\u2019s astronomical. Qargo has been immense for us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Final thoughts<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">RTS&nbsp; is targeting larger contracts and plans to unlock even more features within our TMS, from driver compliance to advanced invoicing. Having already recommended Qargo to several Irish operators, Road Truck Services is committed to growing with Qargo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":10051,"template":"","case_type":[528,516],"case_region":[787],"class_list":["post-10049","case","type-case","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","case_type-3pl-services","case_type-carrier","case_region-ireland"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<title>Road Truck Services - Qargo | Transport Management Software<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Irish general-haulage operator, Road Truck Services case study: how Qargo reduced route planning time by 80% and went live in 2 weeks.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/us\/cases\/road-truck-services\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Road Truck Services - Qargo | Transport Management Software\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Irish general-haulage operator, Road Truck Services case study: how Qargo reduced route planning time by 80% and went live in 2 weeks.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/us\/cases\/road-truck-services\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Qargo | Transport Management Software\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Untitled-design.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1572\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1572\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>","yoast_head_json":{"title":"Road Truck Services - Qargo | Transport Management Software","description":"Irish general-haulage operator, Road Truck Services case study: how Qargo reduced route planning time by 80% and went live in 2 weeks.","robots":{"index":"index","follow":"follow","max-snippet":"max-snippet:-1","max-image-preview":"max-image-preview:large","max-video-preview":"max-video-preview:-1"},"canonical":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/us\/cases\/road-truck-services\/","og_locale":"en_US","og_type":"article","og_title":"Road Truck Services - Qargo | Transport Management Software","og_description":"Irish general-haulage operator, Road Truck Services case study: how Qargo reduced route planning time by 80% and went live in 2 weeks.","og_url":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/us\/cases\/road-truck-services\/","og_site_name":"Qargo | Transport Management Software","og_image":[{"width":1572,"height":1572,"url":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Untitled-design.jpg","type":"image\/jpeg"}],"twitter_card":"summary_large_image","schema":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/us\/cases\/road-truck-services\/","url":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/us\/cases\/road-truck-services\/","name":"Road Truck Services - Qargo | Transport Management Software","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/us\/#website"},"primaryImageOfPage":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/us\/cases\/road-truck-services\/#primaryimage"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/us\/cases\/road-truck-services\/#primaryimage"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Untitled-design.jpg","datePublished":"2025-10-02T21:59:25+00:00","description":"Irish general-haulage operator, Road Truck Services case study: how Qargo reduced route planning time by 80% and went live in 2 weeks.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/us\/cases\/road-truck-services\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-USA","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/us\/cases\/road-truck-services\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-USA","@id":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/us\/cases\/road-truck-services\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Untitled-design.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Untitled-design.jpg","width":1572,"height":1572},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/us\/cases\/road-truck-services\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/us\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Road Truck Services"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/us\/#website","url":"https:\/\/www.qargo.com\/us\/","name":"Qargo | Transport Management Software","description":"Qargo is a new kind of transport management software for automated logistics management.
