To Meet Growing Demands in Evolving Industry Landscape

Budd Lake, NJ. August 6, 2019. Consolidated Chassis Management (CCM), the leading chassis pool manager in the United States, announced that the company has officially brought the management of its chassis management application suite in house to improve upon the simplification of doing business for industry stakeholders with regard to their chassis provisioning.

In the past, CCM has contracted with Trans Tech Partners (TTP) to manage the application suite and going forward CCM will be taking control of the management of the technology implementation, business analysis, quality assurance, and the help desk functions. CCM has built a strong project management team to lead this initiative to increase overall performance of the application suite for users.

"Insourcing of CCM's applications is a natural progression for the company," says CCM CEO Mike Wilson. "TTP has been our partner for many years and we are grateful for the relationship we have with them as well as their cooperation during this time to ensure a smooth transition," said Wilson.

As demands on business increase and quick responses are required to keep up with the pace of change, CCM has identified this initiative as an integral step to take in its next phase of growth in line with its mission to operate the most efficient and collaborative chassis pools for stakeholders. The following applications will be managed in-house where CCM will provide on-site management, data quality oversight and training for users as part of the insourcing of these applications:
