savings by increasing the yard-goat drivers'
productivity, reducing average travel distance

between drivers and the shipping office and
eliminating the manual yard-check process. It
also provided operators the ability to share data
with freight carriers and customers and utilized
the system to resolve detention claims from their
carriers. "Our goal with this year's '100' is to
put the spotlight on successful and innovative
transformation projects that are delivering
bottom-line value to small, medium and large
enterprises across the different functions that
comprise the supply chain," Hochfelder added.
