Logility Announces New Carrier On-Boarding Capabilities
Logility Voyager Transportation Planning and Management™ offers rapid deployment and increases visibility and collaboration with carriers
Atlanta (Oct. 24, 2007) – Logility, Inc. (NASDAQ: LGTY), one of the leading providers of transportation management software solutions for shippers, today announced its new Carrier On-Boarding Service to accelerate implementations of its Transportation Management Solution.
Logility’s industry leading Voyager Transportation Planning and Management solution enables shippers and carriers to collaborate more effectively via a Carrier Web Portal and EDI processes that provides shippers and carriers with streamlined business processes and increased visibility into important information including loads, tenders, bids, shipment status information, and freight payment. Additionally, to get EDI-based carriers up and running quickly, Logility has teamed with Kleinschmidt, a leader in transportation EDI services for over 30 years with over 1000 carriers on their network.
Logility’s Carrier Web Portal already supports hundreds of non-EDI carriers that collaborate with shippers via a WEB browser. Carriers can easily gain visibility to all of their relevant information and business processes. This secure collaboration portal limits access to carrier-specific loads and enables them to quickly review load tenders offered including stops, equipment, delivery requirements, and order details. The carriers can then accept or reject the load(s) as well as enter shipment status information, record appointments, actual pickup or delivery information, and enroute status. Carriers can also bid on loads, enter the available equipment, enter freight bills, and check the status of payment.
“A critical and integral component of any transportation solution revolves around Carrier Management, communication and collaboration,” said Mike Edenfield, president and CEO, Logility. “This new program further accelerates the rapid ROI that Logility’s Transportation Management Solution provides our customers. With the Carrier Portal, EDI and Carrier On-boarding capabilities streamlining the business processes and communication with carriers, the shipper and carrier relationship is strengthened.”
