Summary

Evans Delivery is one of the leading transportation and logistics companies in North America. The company employs 300 full-time employees and 8,000+ independent owner operators. Due to the growth of their contractor network, they struggled with the complexity of large volume tax filing. The company relied on a time-consuming manual process that included spreadsheets, form generation, printing, and physical mailing which consumed weeks of labor annually.

To modernize and streamline compliance, Evans Delivery implemented Tax1099 to automate their 1099-NEC filing and form delivery. This case study explores how Tax1099’s platform eliminated manual processes, significantly cut down processing time, and brought compliance to their tax form filing operations.

Challenges Before Implementing Tax1099

Processing Time

Evans Delivery had 9,000+ 1099-NEC forms to file every year. The filing process was highly time-consuming, involved multiple team members across departments, and would take several weeks to complete.

Delivery Issues

Form printing, envelope stuffing, and delivery were done manually, which often resulted in delays, with some submissions blocked due to address mismatches.

Manual Processes

Data collection, form generation, and printing required manual efforts and coordination between teams, which left room for filing mistakes.

Legacy System

Reliance on spreadsheets and outdated legacy systems that lacked automation made tracking, corrections, and audit readiness difficult and inefficient.

Impact Area Pre-Tax1099 Situation  Desired Outcome 
Processing Time Weeks spent preparing and mailing 9,000+ 1099-NEC forms annually Reduce total time and manpower required for filing
Delivery Issues Paper-based mailing led to delays and blocked submissions due to address mismatches Ensure faster, IRS-compliant USPS delivery of forms
Manual Processes Forms were generated and printed manually, requiring cross-team coordination Eliminate manual touchpoints with end-to-end e-filing and approval workflows
