The History
Unlike many companies that broker out their services, Cowboy Trucking prides itself on maintaining control over its fleet and delivering on its promises. The company earned the trust of both federal and state contractors by consistently meeting their requirements in a timely and professional manner. The company culture is people-friendly, with strong communication and a supportive work environment, making it a great place for new employees like Josey Gutierrez, AR Specialist, who joined just a few months ago.
The Changes
Before partnering with Levelset, Cowboy Trucking faced challenges securing payment rights on all of their projects. Josey was assigned to oversee the Levelset account, initially struggling with the complex process of liens, filing, payment reminders, Texas Monthly Notices, and notices of intent (NOIs). The company needed a way to organize and manage their vendors effectively, to ensure their involvement on projects was visible to all project stakeholders.
The previous manual data management practices were time-consuming and posed a significant challenge, especially in organizing vendors to submit necessary forms. Josey manually tracked down information about bonds, vendor details, and project statuses, which took up a lot of time. Levelset provided much-needed guidance on how to input and manage this information, significantly streamlining the process and allowing Cowboy Trucking to know the status of their projects at all times.
The Results
Since implementing Levelset, Cowboy Trucking has seen remarkable improvements in its operations and financial health. Within just a few months of using Levelset, they experienced a 75%-85% improvement in getting paid faster, which has greatly enhanced their cash flow and overall financial stability. The process of sending notices to customers has pushed them to pay in a more timely manner, reducing the company’s Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) and allowing them to focus on growth.
Levelset helped Cowboy Trucking scale its operations with a lean team. By automating customer reminders and keeping everyone on the same page, Levelset has taken a significant burden off the team, allowing them to maintain strong relationships with vendors and ensure timely payments.
For Josey, the partnership with Levelset has been a learning experience that has empowered her to take on more responsibility and become better prepared in managing lien rights and ensuring they are paid fairly for the work they perform. The exceptional support from Levelset’s team has boosted her confidence and satisfaction, leading to a more proactive approach in her role.
Cowboy Trucking now operates with greater efficiency and confidence, with Levelset playing a key role in their continued growth and success.
“The service is highly exceptional, they provide fast responses, and they have given us confidence in getting paid. I feel very satisfied with Levelset.”
