Poor efficiencies in routing and scheduling - as well as the utilization of equipment and personnel - are hurting freight and delivery carrier profits everywhere. Fleets of all sizes are scrambling to find affordable, easy-to-implement logistics technologies that can improve efficiency issues in order to improve their profits and service. But while they are still utilizing manual paper-based and voice-dependent systems, the pinch of shrinking margins continues to be felt. And, as global carriers force their way into the LTL and Distribution & Delivery arena it has become even more critical for local and regional carriers to evolve their ability to compete.
Now there is such a technology - and fleets of any size can level the playing field quickly, easily and affordably. The introduction of our new Application Service Provider (ASP) software product line allows us to offer access to Cheetah Software on a leasing basis via the Internet. ASP services are an important alternative, not only for smaller companies with small technology budgets, but also for larger companies as a superior way to outsource. With ASP Service, updates, fixes and changes are rapidly and automatically conducted across the entire network. Technically, Cheetah software can then be more easily deployed and integrated into an existing network and with the added benefit that the cost per seat is very affordable. Cheetah Software's ASP offering enables any size customer the advantage of implementing Enterprise quality software previously available only to large companies. Customers can readily implement Cheetah without having to make any capital investments in hardware or infrastructure. All they need is a high speed internet connection and GPS/JAVA enabled Nextel phones.
“We were having tremendous problems with tracking reschedules and we would actually miss customers, resulting that the product would not go out on the day it was supposed to. They were expecting a delivery and it didn't happen. Cheetah has enabled us to provide superior customer service while our volume increases.” "Cheetah is the only logistics system on the market able to simultaneously offer real-time routing, delivery and dispatch information to dispatchers, drivers, CSR's, shippers and customers. Today's customer wants to view the entire freight movement process from start to finish and know where their freight is at all times. Cheetah does that for us - as soon as the driver picks up or delivers freight, he keys that information into the NextelŽ phone so it is available to us in real-time.” |
