Westlake Village, CA (May 15, 2006) — Cheetah Software Systems, the leader in real-time logistics solutions for delivery, less-than-truckload (LTL), courier and private fleets, has been named a 2005 Top 100 Logistics IT Provider by Inbound Logistics magazine.
Inbound Logistics editors selected this year's Top 100 Logistics IT Providers from more than 500 companies, using questionnaires and personal interviews. Editors sought to match their readers' needs to the capabilities of those selected.
"Given the change dynamic facing leading global enterprises, it's impressive to see Cheetah providing the kinds of solutions INBOUND LOGISTICS readers need to successfully navigate this change," said Felecia Stratton, editor of Inbound Logistics. "It's tough to keep up with customer demands in any environment, but the speed with which change is happening is a testament to Cheetah's ability to be flexible and responsive, anticipating customers' evolving needs. For that reason, INBOUND LOGISTICS editors have recognized Cheetah as one of this year's Top 100 Logistics IT companies."
"Rising gas costs, poor efficiencies in routing and scheduling - as well as the utilization of equipment and personnel - are hurting freight and delivery carrier profits everywhere," said Stephan Karczag, Cheetah's Vice President. "Cheetah's Real-Time Logistics Solutions offers real-time route optimization, delivery and dispatch information to dispatchers, drivers, CSR's, shippers and customers," he said.
Cheetah user, John Cochran, President of JS Logistics states "I can do twice the business with half the people and improve customer service."
"Cheetah made the 2005 Top 100 Logistics IT Providers list because of flexibility and leadership in expanding their solutions and offering enriched functionality. The companies chosen reflect leadership by answering our readers' need for simplicity, ROI, and efficient implementation.
