Leading Transportation Advisory Firm Teams with project44 to Bring New Technology to Industry. End Quote

Chicago, IL (1888PressRelease) November 25, 2014 - CarrierDirect, a highly regarded advisory firm to transportation and logistics companies, has announced a partnership with project44 to offer their next-generation web services technologies to third-party logistics companies (3PLs) and freight carriers. The tech company's services, which have been quickly adopted as the web services standard in the freight industry, will be offered alongside other products that CarrierDirect provides to its clients.

"The services that project44 provides are revolutionary for the freight industry," says Joel Clum, President of CarrierDirect. "We've seen the need for freight companies to adopt more advanced technology solutions, and what project44 offers has been proven to solve a lot of the challenges that companies have to operate more efficiently and provide new services to their end-customers."

The Chicago-based project44 provides a proprietary network of web technology that allows shippers, 3PLs and carriers to connect to one another in a single, standardized language. These connections, which they refer to as "the pipes", are currently being utilized by companies to speed up efficiency and accuracy of LTL tariff management, real-time rating, dispatching and tracking. By using these connections, the speed and efficiency that shippers, 3PLs and carriers do business with one another has dramatically increased.

"When we started out building our pipes we had the goal to build a scalable and robust network of connections for companies to use to 'supercharge' their business in freight," says Wally Ibrahim, CTO of project44. "Based on the feedback of current customers, we've passed that test with flying colors. This relationship with CarrierDirect will help to expand our services to an entirely new group of customers to help make their supply chains more efficient."
