From Aberdeenshire, Scotland, Marshall Brothers Transport Ltd deliver dry goods and spirits across the country. Although their primary focus is on delivering bottles and casks of spirits, they also support customers with other general haulage requests. The company, established in 2019 by Phillip Marshall, has successfully grown. However, their advancement also welcomed new challenges such as increased administration efforts. As a knock-on effect, the Marshall Brothers Director, Phillip, was spending most of his evenings processing paperwork and invoicing customers. He knew that to regain his personal life he had to introduce a better way to deal with his workload. After searching online for a way to better deal with the admin side of transport, Phillip discovered HaulTech.365.
HaulTech.365 is a Transport Management System that has been developed by a team who have over 100+ years in the haulage industry. The web-based solution helps haulage professionals, like Phillip, to add jobs, assign work to drivers, store paperwork (such as PODs and POCs) and invoice customers simply and efficiently. Typically this system helps hauliers to reduce their data duplication by 80% and allows them to complete their work in just 60% of the time. Upon discovering this, Phillip opted to sign up for the system and hasn’t looked back. The Director commented, “I reckon I’ve saved 20hrs per week, as I now finish at 6 pm rather than 10 pm”.
Due to the nature of the company’s Duty suspended transport (the movement of alcohol) they require an HMRC movement guarantee which is a legal requirement. To do this Marshall Brothers Transport must comply with certain regulations and follow certain administration processes. HaulTech.365 allows the haulage professionals to store their paperwork and meet compliance standards more efficiently and securely. Phillip spoke on this, “Due to the nature of our work, we have to hold ourselves to the highest of standards to retain our license. The system helps us to keep on top of what we need to do to avoid scrutiny”.
