Inbound freight program: Transportation
management software provider Kuebix has
introduced SupplierMax, a comprehensive
program designed to increase the efficiency
of inbound freight operations. According
to Kuebix, inbound freight management
has been an often-overlooked area in the
supply chain because inbound shipping is
complex, and many companies lack the
internal resources and technology to put a
comprehensive inbound strategy in place.
SupplierMax leverages Kuebix’s technology
and the Kuebix team of freight experts to
implement an inbound freight management
program that increases efficiency and reduces
costs, the company says.
With SupplierMax, companies can manage
all or a portion of their inbound freight program. SupplierMax incorporates a series of
comprehensive strategies to improve inbound
operations. These strategies include building
a plan with suppliers to reduce the number
of inbound deliveries and associated costs by
consolidating less-than-truckload shipments
into full truckloads. (Kuebix, www.kuebix.

Data intelligence platform: RateLinx, a
company specializing in customized supply
chain data services and consulting, has introduced its new Integrated Data Intelligence
platform to help shippers extract supply chain
insights from their multiple data sources.
Using the company’s end-to-end DaaS (data
as a service) approach from order through
delivery, cash, and payment, RateLinx integrates data from multiple data streams in real
time to create an integrated data foundation.
RateLinx integrates data from multiple sources, including supplier, forwarder,
customs broker, third-party logistics service
provider (3PL), carrier, and customer, into
one integrated ecosystem. Applying RateLinx
advanced analytics, customers then have
access to a complete picture of what is
happening in their supply chain at any time.
According to the company, this information
provides customers with timely insights to
help them transform their logistics, improve
their supply chain, and reduce freight costs.
RateLinx offers three primary data services in its DaaS suite: Radar Track & Trace,
Intelligent Invoice Management, and ShipLinx
TMS. The suite is designed so integrated data
intelligence is available with no IT resources
required, avoiding any delays. Customers can
see immediately where supply chain problems exist and how to develop and deploy
strategies to create a competitive advantage.

Order picker: Combilift, a material handling solutions provider, has launched
its first purpose-built order picker designed for long products, the Combi-OP.
Previously, customers have had to modify traditional order pickers to cope with the
specific demands of long loads.
This man-up truck features a long platform to enable the operator to access long
products stored at height. It is fitted with guide rollers to allow it to operate in
existing guided narrow aisles of just 1. 4 meters ( 4. 5 feet). The picker has a capacity
of 990 pounds and includes such safety features as an overhead guard, self-closing
platform gate, and guardrails. (Combilift, www.combilift.com)
