## What the story says

PADNOS, a metal, paper, and plastic recycler, uses Levelpath for guided buying intake, contract management, and a mobile app that lets truck drivers request repairs directly from suppliers. It replaced legacy systems, email, Excel, and phone calls.

Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of Levelpath and Padnos, not ours.

> Truck drivers can now connect directly with suppliers through the Levelpath mobile app, with all the necessary paperwork available in the background. Drivers handle situations independently rather than playing telephone through coaches, maintenance, and purchasing. The fleet saves more than 6,000 hours of downtime each year as a direct result.

- **6,000 hours**: “The fleet saves more than 6,000 hours of downtime each year as a direct result.”
- **180**: “By the end of the third month, more than 180 PADNOS employees were active in Levelpath.”

> The simplicity of Levelpath is really life-changing for us at PADNOS, especially with our 100+ truck drivers who need to keep things moving.
