What is all this money you are talking about? I have been told you can’t make any money as an owner op. Biggest problem I have is that don’t feel like working as hard anymore.
Owner Operators what are your biggest issues now?

A real data scientist you will find working in teams at the largest of transport companies such as YRC or FedEx or name any of the real big tech savvy companies. And they will have diplomas or degrees from MIT Massachusetts Institute of Technology or some other college with Data Science programs. Anywhere there is extremely complicated work going on to squeeze that last bit of revenue out of company and competitor data you will find a team of data scientists working closely with a marketing team. The position is relatively new to trucking therefore only the largest of companies will employ them. As the rest of the industry catches up the profession will become more well known and trickle down into the smaller companies. Even the company I work for, a very large company, is "behind" on data management from what I have seen.
Engineers, well, you could put it that way. Its a hell of a lot of responsibility nowadays to operate a big truck. The bar is always being raised for minimum level of training. -

Yes. Analytics is working with data to discover significant patterns and communicating those patterns so that they may be used. The data can be fed into an algorithm that makes predictions based on historical patterns. Knowing exactly what a customer is going to order on a specific season, then offering them a special deal customized just for them based on margins fair for both parties, and having this all done by a computer, and email. That is the power.
dwells40 Thanks this.
