Powerful Solutions. Practical Technology. Lasting Partnerships.
For more than 40 years, Transportation Resources, Inc. (TRI) has been designing, developing, and supporting customized software applications that help businesses operate more efficiently, make informed decisions, and serve their customers better.
Our greatest strength isn’t simply writing software. It’s understanding people, business processes, and the challenges our clients face every day. We believe successful software development begins with communication. We work side-by-side with our clients, learning how their businesses operate, identifying opportunities for improvement, and developing practical solutions that meet their unique requirements. From relatively simple database applications to sophisticated, mission-critical systems supporting hundreds of users, we develop software that works the way our clients work.
Our applications are built around your business, not the other way around.
Some of our client relationships span more than 20 years. That longevity reflects our commitment to providing dependable technology, responsive support, and solutions that evolve as business needs change.
Data-Driven Business Applications
Data is at the heart of virtually every business operation. Whether managing customers, processing transactions, tracking inventory, coordinating transportation, or analyzing financial performance, businesses depend on timely, accurate, and accessible information.
At TRI, data-driven application development has been our specialty for decades. Using technologies such as Microsoft SQL Server, .NET, ASP.NET, and Microsoft Access, we design integrated systems that collect, organize, process, and present information in ways that improve productivity and decision-making.
Our applications range from specialized departmental solutions to comprehensive, multi-user business management systems. We have extensive experience developing applications for transportation management, dispatch operations, freight accounting, customer management, inventory control, time and billing, and financial reporting.
We turn business information into practical tools that help organizations work smarter.
Web-Based Applications
Today’s businesses operate far beyond the traditional office. Employees, customers, vendors, and management increasingly need access to critical information regardless of where they are located.
Our web-based applications extend the capabilities of business systems beyond the desktop, providing secure access to information and essential business functions from virtually anywhere. We develop custom web applications that integrate directly with existing databases and internal business systems, allowing organizations to share information, automate workflows, and interact with customers in real time. From customer portals and shipment tracking to online reporting, order management, and complex transaction processing, we build web solutions designed around the specific needs of each organization.
Whether your business needs a simple information portal or a comprehensive web-based management system, TRI can help bring your operations and your customers together.
Mobile Applications & Responsive Solutions
Business doesn’t stop when someone leaves the office.
Smartphones and tablets have fundamentally changed how people access information, communicate, and conduct business. We embrace these technologies by developing mobile-friendly applications that put essential business capabilities directly into the hands of employees and customers. Our solutions can support field operations, time and expense reporting, delivery confirmation, inventory transactions, customer service, and remote access to business information. Rather than developing technology simply because it is new, we focus on creating mobile solutions that deliver meaningful improvements in convenience, efficiency, and productivity.
The right information, in the right hands, at the right time.
Artificial Intelligence & Intelligent Automation
Artificial intelligence is creating exciting opportunities to improve the way businesses collect, process, interpret, and use information.
At TRI, we are exploring and integrating AI technologies into practical business applications, combining the capabilities of artificial intelligence with our decades of experience in database design and software development. AI-powered document processing can extract information from invoices, bills of lading, shipping documents, and other business records, reducing manual data entry and improving the speed of information processing. Intelligent automation can help identify inconsistencies, organize information, streamline repetitive tasks, and make existing business systems more productive. We also recognize the potential of AI-powered information systems that allow employees and customers to interact with business data using natural language. Our approach is straightforward: artificial intelligence should serve a meaningful business purpose.
We believe the greatest value of AI comes from combining intelligent technology with reliable business data and well-designed applications.
Database Design & Systems Integration
A well-designed database is the foundation of a dependable business application.
With extensive experience in Microsoft SQL Server and relational database architecture, TRI develops systems capable of managing complex business information while maintaining data integrity, performance, and reliability. We also understand that businesses rarely operate with a single software system. Our applications can integrate information from multiple databases, legacy applications, web services, and external business systems, reducing duplicate entry and creating a more unified operating environment. Whether modernizing an existing application, connecting separate systems, or developing an entirely new database solution, we focus on protecting the value of your information while making it more accessible and useful.
Barcode Scanning & Inventory Management
Accurate inventory management depends on capturing reliable information quickly and consistently.
Manual data entry can introduce errors, particularly when working with complex product numbers, large inventories, or high transaction volumes. TRI develops barcode-enabled applications that simplify inventory receiving, movement, tracking, and shipping. By integrating barcode scanning technologies with customized database applications, we help organizations improve inventory accuracy, reduce processing time, and maintain better control over their operations.
Our solutions can incorporate handheld scanning devices, mobile equipment, barcode printing, and real-time database updates.
Document Management & Digital Imaging
Paper documents remain an important part of many business operations, but managing them doesn’t have to be complicated.
TRI develops document management solutions that integrate scanned images, electronic files, and business records directly into customized applications. Whether working with freight bills, delivery receipts, invoices, contracts, or other business documents, our systems help organizations capture, organize, retrieve, and share information efficiently. Modern document processing technologies, including optical character recognition (OCR) and artificial intelligence, create additional opportunities to extract data automatically and reduce manual processing.
The result is improved accessibility, faster retrieval, and better control of important business information.
Legacy Application Support & Modernization
Not every successful business application needs to be replaced simply because technology has changed.
Many organizations depend on customized software developed years ago that continues to perform essential business functions. At TRI, we understand the investment our clients have made in these systems. We support, maintain, enhance, and modernize existing applications, helping businesses extend the useful life of proven technology while introducing new capabilities when appropriate. Whether upgrading an established Microsoft Access application, extending a SQL Server database, or connecting an existing system to modern web technologies, our goal is to preserve what works while improving what can be better.
Good software should grow with your business, not become an obstacle to its success.
Our Commitment: Partnerships That Last
Technology changes. Business challenges evolve. But the importance of communication, trust, and dependable service remains constant.
For more than four decades, our clients have relied on TRI not simply as a software developer, but as a technology partner. We take pride in understanding the businesses we serve, responding to changing needs, and standing behind the applications we develop. Some of the systems we created decades ago are still serving our clients today, having evolved alongside the organizations that depend upon them. That is the measure of successful software development.
At Transportation Resources, Inc., we don’t just build applications. We build relationships, solve problems, and create technology that lasts.
