BlueGrace Logistics Launches Carrier File for BlueShip® TMS

Proprietary platform and data mining tool streamlines the search process and aggregates capacity that is missed by most load boards

TAMPA, FL - BlueGrace Logistics, one of the nation's largest third-party logistics providers (3PL),
is making it easier to find the right truck for the right load with the rollout of its own Carrier File
inside BlueShip TMS, providing the company with a new proprietary data mining platform that
filters through data collected on hundreds of thousands of carrier records to find the best
transportation options for every shipment.

BlueGrace Logistics new carrier tool provides a platform that stores years' worth of both
internal and external data, which streamlines the carrier search process to help identify and
select the best truck. This upgrade to BlueShip is the latest in the BlueGrace arsenal of business
analytics tools that have established the company as the freight experts who manage their
customers' freight function efficiently and cost-effectively.

Mark Ford, Chief Operating Officer, Carrier Sales at BlueGrace Logistics, helped develop this
service, which contains over 500,000 carrier files and includes verified real time data from
various sources for the most accurate qualification and compliance information. As a result,
BlueShip now includes a treasure trove of proprietary data on over 30,000 carriers with long-
time BlueGrace relationships. The data includes valuable historical profiles, giving BlueGrace
experts deep insights into carrier preferences and performance while giving shippers
confidence and peace of mind that their shipments will arrive when and where they are
needed.

"BlueGrace Logistics believes superior data makes the shipping process better for everyone, so
we created our own propriety platform to create value for our customers and increase
productivity of our carrier sales staff. We've been using a combination of off the shelf platforms
to perform these tasks up until this point. Reducing our reliance on third party systems will save
time and boost profitability for the more than 10,000 customers we serve," said Ford.

Ford continued, "As a logistics service provider, you need to provide customers capacity that
they don't have access to on their own, otherwise you aren't providing a real value. Most brokers
are fishing from the same pond. We've invested a lot of money in resources uncovering
capacity that doesn't exist on external load boards. Now we have a more efficient way of
utilizing this data."

With the new Carrier File now embedded in BlueShip, the BlueGrace Logistics core technology
platform, employees can proactively identify opportunities to alleviate costs and optimize their
customers' supply chains. BlueShip is entirely cloud-based, integration-friendly, fully scalable
and also gathers pricing data from hundreds of LTL trucking partners nationwide to provide a full suite of modal options for the customers they serve. Customers also receive access to a full suite of web services and custom business intelligence reporting.
