Driving Efficiency in Permit Management: How OneGov and ConneX Help Haulers Like Morrell Oversize Stay Ahead

In today’s fast-paced transportation industry, staying compliant and efficient with permitting requirements is essential—especially for companies operating across multiple jurisdictions. The integration between the OneGov permits platform and ConneX is helping organizations meet this challenge head-on by streamlining access, reducing manual entry, and improving permit accuracy.

Simplifying Access and Centralizing Management

The integration allows users to sign into all OneGov permit sites using their ConneX credentials. This single sign-on functionality eliminates the need to manage separate logins for different jurisdictions. In addition, multiple user profiles can be grouped under a single organization, enabling companies to view and manage all permits in one centralized location. This structure is particularly beneficial for companies managing large fleets or multiple permit agents, as it enhances oversight and simplifies coordination.

Smarter Permit Applications for Haulers

For haulers, ConneX goes beyond basic account access—it serves as a central asset library for commonly used permit details. Users can save vehicle and trailer information, axle configurations, and routing templates directly in ConneX. When completing OneGov permits, these saved templates can be quickly selected, reducing time spent on data entry and minimizing the risk of errors that could result in non-compliance or penalties.

This streamlined process has had a significant impact on organizations like Morrell Oversize Inc., a regional carrier based in Elk River, Minnesota. Responsible for pulling transportation permits at the city, county, and state levels, Morrell relies heavily on efficient systems to keep up with demand.

“Our ConneX account is critical in our ability to keep up with the fast pace of our industry. The ability to upload all movement details from stored templates allows us to pull a permit in a matter of minutes. Having stored truck and trailer data in our ConneX account makes filling weight and spacing tables as quick as a click of the mouse. Saved routing information allows us to be specific in our applications, giving municipalities and our drivers clear and detailed information about our haul specifics.”

Improving Accuracy and Reducing Delays

Online permitting also delivers benefits in terms of speed and accuracy. The ability to process permits quickly and get them into drivers’ hands is key to keeping Morrell’s permit and dispatch teams running smoothly. “The ability to process online applications quickly, while increasing accuracy and speeding the movement of permits from the initial application through the delivery of approved permits to drivers is imperative to the success of our permit and dispatch teams,” Hegge said.

Empowering Local Governments Through Standardization

Counties and cities also benefit from the OneGov and ConneX integration. The use of standardized data and consistent terminology enables faster, more accurate permit processing. This consistency supports stronger collaboration between haulers and permitting authorities, creating a more seamless experience for all parties involved.

“RTVision has been a solid partner in creating a platform that delivers value far past the basic necessities of permits,” Hegge added. “They listen to the needs of all user types, then adapt, configure, and execute on projects that continuously improve our industry.”
