# The Clients

## Imona Logistics & Avesto LLC

Imona Logistics and Avesto LLC are two U.S.-based freight and trucking operations founded by brothers. Each company operates an active fleet of 15 professional drivers (30+ drivers combined) handling interstate freight movement.

At the end of each weekly pay period, dispatch management compiles itemized settlement statements for every driver detailing completed loads, gross revenue, fuel deductions, maintenance expenses, and expense receipts.

Following the successful deployment of the settlement automation at Imona Logistics, the identical system was configured and deployed for Avesto LLC, doubling the total operational time saved across the two businesses.

- **30+** Total Drivers  
- **2** Sister Fleets  
- **Weekly** Pay Cycle  
- **U.S.** Interstate

## The Challenge

### Manual settlement calculations across two trucking fleets.

Every week, management had to manually compile individual PDF settlement statements for all 30+ drivers across both companies. Each statement required filtering trip rows, calculating deductions, attaching receipt images, and exporting individual documents.

1. **Filtering trip records per driver**  Manually isolating individual driver trips from the master dispatch spreadsheet for each fleet.
2. **Calculating gross earnings & deductions**  Summing mileage, gross load rates, fuel deductions, and net payouts for 30+ drivers.
3. **Locating expense receipts**  Matching fuel and maintenance receipt photos to corresponding deduction lines.
4. **Document formatting & layout**  Arranging tables, driver metadata, and receipt attachments into document templates.
5. **Manual export & distribution**  Saving PDFs individually and emailing them to each respective driver.

### Operational Bottlenecks

- **14 Hours Every Week Combined**  7 hours/week at Imona and 7 hours/week at Avesto dedicated strictly to settlement files.
- **Data Entry Overhead**  Copy-pasting trip rows between tabs increased the chance of calculation errors.
- **Fleet Expansion Load**  Managing 30+ drivers across two companies created a recurring administrative bottleneck.
- **Administrative Strain**  Leadership spent considerable time on routine file assembly instead of dispatch coordination.

- **30+** Drivers Covered  
  15 drivers at Imona Logistics and 15 drivers at Avesto LLC receiving weekly itemized statements.
- **0** Manual Recalculations  
  Automated calculations prevent rate and deduction discrepancies across both fleets.

### Sibling Fleet Deployment

After Imona Logistics eliminated 7 hours of weekly manual statement work for its 15 drivers, the CEO recommended the identical solution to his brother's company, **Avesto LLC**. Avesto operates an equivalent fleet of 15 drivers, doubling the combined time savings to **14 hours per week (approx. 60 hours/month)** across both operations.
