What old systems are actually costing you in 2026
Most logistics and industrial companies in the Lower Mainland are still running on 8–15 year old software, spreadsheets, and manual processes.
leaking through manual dispatch, paperwork reconciliation, change-order chase-down, and Monday-morning sequencing meetings
lost to fuel inefficiency, mis-positioned inventory, equipment downtime, and rush-order surcharges
safety events, equipment failures, and team frustration growing as workload compounds
into dispatch, inventory status, equipment health, or active-site coordination
These are the exact problems we solve for companies in Coquitlam and Port Coquitlam every month.
The grow28ai Legacy Modernization System
A structured, 90-day program that replaces your biggest manual bottlenecks with reliable AI, without ripping out your existing systems.
Dispatch & Load Optimization
AI-powered slotting, route density, real-time ETA prediction, and service-call routing. Whether it's freight, crane lifts, or HVAC techs, dispatch decisions move from phone calls to ranked recommendations. Reduce empty miles and same-day juggle by 25–40%.
Document & Data Automation
OCR + intelligent document processing that ingests, validates, and reconciles BOL/POD, change orders, work orders, quotes, and invoicing, without re-keying. The data lands clean in your ERP, no manual reconciliation pass.
Predictive Maintenance
Turn telematics, hours-of-use, and pressure/sensor data into early warnings for trucks, pumps, sprayers, conveyors, and heavy equipment, before costly breakdowns happen mid-job.
Cross-Project & Multi-Site Coordination
For construction, trades, and multi-branch operators: subtrade availability, material lead times, crew scheduling, and site sequencing pulled into a single live plan rather than a Monday-morning meeting plus four phone calls per change order.
Inventory & Forecast Optimization
SKU mix, parts inventory, and demand forecasting tuned to your job pipeline, supplier lead times, and seasonal patterns. Capital lands in the right product at the right yard, before the rush-order surcharge phase.
Real-Time Visibility Dashboard
One clean dashboard showing live location, load status, equipment health, inventory position, and project status, accessible on desktop and mobile, ready for the analyst call or the Monday review.

How we modernize your legacy systems
Discovery Call (Day 0)
We pick the highest-leverage AI Manager for your operation. Dispatch Dana, Compliance Carl, or a custom role we scope with you. Dollar recovery sized live on the call.
AI Manager Live (Day 2)
Within 48 hours your first named AI Manager is deployed in an isolated container, trained on your data, connected to your TMS or ERP. We send a Loom of it working the same day it goes live.
Weekly Improvements (Weeks 1 onward)
Trello-style request board. Your team drags in what your AI Manager should learn next, we ship improvements within days. Watchdogs alert if anything breaks.
Compound the Workforce (Month 2 onward)
Month-end report shows what the first AI Manager recovered. We queue the next hire. Workforce compounds, dispatch adds compliance adds quoting, until the operation runs leaner permanently.
Three ways to engage
Discovery Call
Live screen-share demo of an AI Manager doing real work. We pick the highest-leverage hire for your operation and sizes dollar recovery. No commitment.
First AI Manager Sprint
Within 48 hours your first named AI Manager is live, trained, and recovering dollars. Most clients see measurable cost recovery by week 3.
AI Workforce Retainer
Ongoing engagement. New AI Managers deployed monthly, weekly improvements via request board, watchdogs and alerts, dollar recovery report every month.
Investment is scoped to your operation on the discovery call. Most clients recover it within the first 90 days, often before invoice 2 lands.
Common questions
Do we have to replace our existing software?
No. Our modernization approach layers AI on top of what you already have, TMS, ERP, spreadsheets. We build integrations, not replacements. Most clients keep their core systems and gain 60–80% of the efficiency benefits without a rip-and-replace project.
How long does implementation actually take?
Your first AI Manager is live in 48 hours. The next one ships every 2 weeks (or every 4, depending on tier). A full multi-role AI workforce covering dispatch, paperwork, and compliance is typically operational in 12 weeks. Timeline is driven by your data access and team availability, not ours.
What size of operation is this built for?
Mid-market logistics and industrial companies, typically 15 to 150 trucks, 20 to 500 employees, $5M to $100M revenue. Smaller operations usually don't have enough volume to justify the ROI. Larger fleets often have in-house technology teams already. The Tri-Cities mid-market is the exact band where our approach produces the most leverage.
What do the case study results actually mean? Can we expect the same?
Results vary by company, data quality, and engagement depth. The case study figures reflect actual client outcomes, but your baseline is different from theirs. The discovery call produces ROI projections specific to your operation, sized live with us. Those are the numbers we commit to.
Is the monthly retainer required after the first AI Manager is live?
Yes, the monthly retainer is what keeps the AI Manager improving, the watchdogs running, and us available for new AI Managers. The first 48-hour deployment is the start of the engagement, not the end. Most clients add a second AI Manager within the first 30 days because the dollar recovery on the first justifies the next hire on its own.
Which Tri-Cities locations do you serve?
All five municipalities, Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam (PoCo), Port Moody, Anmore, and Belcarra, plus broader Lower Mainland. On-site engagement at your facility is standard for discovery and go-live; implementation sprints are typically remote-first to maximize velocity.
