Express Technologies enhances Logistics Portals

WEXFORD, PA – February 17, 2010 – Express Technologies has announced a major expansion and upgrade to its logistics web portals.

The LoadTech Logistics Portals connect logistics providers to their shippers, customers, carriers, vendors and partners. They provide real-time transportation visibility and enhance collaboration across the supply chain. The upgrade provides significant new features to the firms WebTrace, WebRate, ExpressTrace and ExpressView document imaging and procurement. It also enhances all of the customer-specific LoadTech web portals.

“What we’ve done is to take our visibility and collaboration portals and add business intelligence and context-sensitive intelligence,” explains Director of Transportation Solutions, Brandon Barnhart. “These are used by our LoadTech users and their customers and vendors. The net effect is to enhance the customer experience, which adds value to the LoadTech user’s offerings.”

The expanded web portals are based on the LoadTech Logistics Data Center platform. They provide 24/7/365 on-demand availability for mission-critical functions. The portals require a secure login authorization that is controlled completely by the users and is accessed either through www.xpresstech.com or the LoadTech customers’ sites. The portal offerings are branded with the user’s corporate identity and logos.

Paul Maloney, President and CEO adds, “These enhancements increase efficiency and collaboration across the supply chain. By leveraging the Data Center platform, customers gain new capabilities and the cost-savings that come from economies of scale. Our feedback has been that it differentiates our customers in the marketplace and solidifies business relationships.”

“Efficient, close collaboration and real-time visibility are keys in today’s competitive freight market,” continues Mr. Barnhart. “But more important than that is to deliver those technical capabilities to your shippers in a way that fits their specific freight mix and business requirements. The flexibility and intelligence of ExpressTech’s Logistics portal does just that.”
