Internal FreightTech
3PL-Specific ERP System
To gain real-time financial control and free up leadership bandwidth in TELEPORT Logistics Company, I led the development of a custom ERP system tailored for 3PL operations. This internal tool consolidated shipment data, financial metrics, and employee incentives into a live dashboard – giving our team clarity and enabling me to fully delegate day-to-day operations and focus on new growth projects.
Year :
2013 - 2015
Niche :
B2B Software
Company :
TELEPORT Logistics Company
Duration :
2 years
Problem :
Off-the-shelf ERP systems were too generic or too expensive for a mid-sized freight company like TELEPORT. Critical details – like real-time shipment profitability, currency conversion accuracy, or individual bonus tracking – were either missing or poorly supported. As a result, managers lacked visibility, and employees didn’t always understand how their actions impacted the bottom line.
Solution :
I designed and implemented a proprietary ERP that tracked:
– Expected vs actual profit per shipment
– Real-time FX adjustments
– Bonus growth per team member
– Predictive monthly financial outcomes based on live data
This turned the ERP into a motivational and operational tool – not just an accounting back-office system.
Challenge :
The main challenge was adoption. Getting teams to input structured data consistently meant reworking habits. I led internal training, iterated the UX for simplicity, and introduced lightweight incentive nudges to build momentum and ensure accuracy.
Summary :
This ERP changed everything:
– It gave me the confidence to fully delegate operations
– It allowed TELEPORT to run efficiently without constant oversight
– It became a performance proof in the sale of the company to ESTMA in 2019
– It was fully adopted and implemented by ESTMA pre-acquisition
This project sparked my love for FreightTech. I saw firsthand how the right internal tools could transform a freight business – and I’ve been building in that direction ever since.
