Optimizing for the Future: D.M. Bowman Embraces Decision Automation
“We’re disrupting the normal way of trucking around here. But everyone’s bought in, and I think that’s going to take us the next 65 years.” - Samantha Bodnar, President, D.M. Bowman

In today’s chaotic freight market, relying on planner instinct and spreadsheets is no longer sustainable. D.M. Bowman, one of the nation’s top carriers, faced rising volatility, shorter contracts, and inconsistent planning – a recipe for inefficiency and lost profit.
Their mission was to move beyond siloed decisions and build operational resilience. With Optimal Dynamics, they gained control of their network, empowered their people, and found a smarter way to grow.
Discover how D.M. Bowman:
- Increased revenue per mile, revenue per shift, and loads per shift
