Trimble, Intelligent Audit offer integrated technology solution for transportation, logistics

Supply chain technology provider Trimble and freight management solutions provider Intelligent Audit are working together to provide integrated visibility and audit solutions tools for customers in the transportation and logistics business, the companies said this week.

The companies formed a collaboration that will integrate their solutions, allowing users to access visibility and tracking through Trimble's supply chain solution, and audit and spend analytics through Intelligent Audit, the companies said.

The collaboration combines real-time visibility with robust freight auditing analytics, the companies added.

"Customers of both companies will benefit from this new integration that provides a solution for the supply chain," Joe DeBoth, vice president and general manager, Trimble Transportation Visibility, Sunnyvale, Calif., said in a statement announcing the partnership. "Users will have access to improved reporting and analytics, with the added freight visibility and tracking abilities through the audit process."

"We were the first company to automate the audit and recovery process in transportation," added Hannah Testani, chief operating officer, Intelligent Audit, Rochelle Park, N.J. "Each year since our inception, we've worked hard to continuously improve our product. Working with Trimble to tap valuable supply chain data will further advance the audit process and is another step in the evolution to continually reduce transportation costs, improve customer experience, and enhance visibility throughout the supply chain."
