Ruan’s Flexible Integrated Solutions Service

Our Integrated Solutions service combines our non-asset and asset-based capabilities with optimal technology and encompasses every part of the supply chain. Dedicated Contract Carriage (DCC), Logistics Management and Warehouse Management. Certified Brokerage Services and Mode Selection. And more. Combining these services allows Ruan to create custom solutions that guarantee capacity and give you exactly what you need — nothing more, nothing less.

We use a process-oriented approach, assessing your company goals and customizing a system that makes the most sense for your business. We offer industry-leading supply chain event management and workflow, rich analytics, quarterly KPI reporting and a sophisticated transportation planning engine to optimize shipments while reducing costs.

Innovation Driven by Values

Our supply chain solutions are successful because we constantly strive to improve. We take our cues from our company values and integrity. And when it makes sense for our customers, our team members or the industry, we take the lead. Ruan has earned 2012 and 2013

Smart Way Excellence Awards for helping lead the freight industry to a more sustainable future.

Ruan’s proprietary Megasafe Safety Program drives safety innovations, prevents injuries and reduces material damages. RTMS2.0 — our transportation management system — aggregates data across a wide variety of tools and provides metrics that help refine our partners’ supply chains.

The result is an unparalleled commitment to our customers. We provide 24/7 care so that when our clients need us — whenever they need us — we’re there. By providing the most flexible fleet and non-asset supply chain options, our client retention rate is 99.7 percent.

The investment you put into your goods and your business is too valuable to trust with just anyone. Whether you are large or small; whether you are a new customer or have partnered with us for a long time; whether you use one of our services or many, our promise is simple: You will always get what you need. And you will always get our best. That's the power of Ruan.
