Distribution And Transportation Company Finds A High Availability Solution For IBM System i (iSeries) To Meet Needs

As one of North America's largest trucking companies, C.R. England simply cannot afford to have its business-critical trucking operation applications offline. The company has 2600 trucks moving loads all over North America at any moment of the day or night.

Dirk Anderson, V.P. of Information Technologies at C.R. England emphasized the point, "On average, we bill over $1.5 million a day, so if we're down for one day, for any reason, we are that far behind in cash flow. If we were down for a significant length of time it would be next to impossible to manually manage our processes today."

Just as C.R. England was upgrading its production IBM® System i to a Model 830, Anderson and Brian Wyatt, the company's AS/400 Operations Manager, learned about iTera HA from Vision Solutions.
