A. Duie Pyle, a family-owned and operated supply chain solutions provider based in West Chester, Pa., announced it was the winner of the American Trucking Association (ATA) President’s Trophy winner.
The award honors one winner in each class based on annual miles driven for their safety. Winners must pass through a multi-stage judging process, beginning with a comprehensive data submission and verification round. The judging then moves into a deep examination of the carrier’s programs, culture and training, before ending in a final review that determines the single best safety program in each class.
“Safety across the country’s most challenging freight corridors requires a collective effort that goes far beyond the driver’s seat. At Pyle, every team member takes personal responsibility for the accountability and excellence our customers expect,” Peter Dannecker, vice president of Risk and Integrated Resources at Pyle, said. “Winning the ATA President’s Trophy in our debut year as a large carrier validates years of investment in our people and a culture that keeps safety at the core of everything we do.”
The company said its commitment to safety is built into every part of its operations, from comprehensive training and proactive maintenance to advanced 360-degree camera systems. The company said this investment into safety ensures it can continue its 102-year legacy of accountability. Established in 1924, the company provides asset and non-asset-based supply chain solutions and offers a full range of integrated transportation and distributions services including LTL, contract dedicated, warehousing and brokerage solutions.
