EROAD Expands TMS Integration Capabilities with New Partnership with Tranztec

With expanded capabilities, EROAD is well-positioned to enhance fleet efficiency and provide greater visibility into the supply chain ecosystem.

EROAD, a global leader in fleet performance management, announced today a partnership with Tranztec Solutions, Inc., a leading supply chain technology company that provides an open platform for connectivity and visibility across the industry. The collaboration will allow EROAD to develop a comprehensive set of integrations with transportation management systems (TMS), unlocking efficiencies by automating freight visibility, communications, and transportation-specific workflows.

Through this partnership, EROAD and Tranztec will offer fleet managers comprehensive visibility to optimize planning, procurement, logistics and lifecycle management, enabling timely delivery of freight and goods. With EROAD’s robust telematics and Tranztec’s capabilities, fleet managers will be empowered to monitor freight activity in real-time, and create, plan and manage the progress of an order throughout the entire supply chain.


“EROAD has always been committed to delivering the most reliable and applicable insights to its customers. TMS integration has been an important product development and we’re excited to partner with Tranztec Solutions to expand our capabilities,” said Akinyemi Koyi (AK), President of North America at EROAD. “Fleet managers will have access to data that will make it easier to manage and optimize their transportation operations, playing a vital role in improving a fleet’s bottom line.”

With improved dispatching capabilities and an interactive map with load details, the new integrated TMS can capture, present and transmit critical data to customers without manual effort. The partnership will further EROAD’s existing capabilities to facilitate seamless communication with motor carriers and freight brokers, as well as collaborate with shippers to solve common challenges with cargo security, freight integrity, and load detention.

“Tranztec is proud to partner with EROAD to provide seamless integration and visibility services to EROAD’s impressive fleet performance platform,” said Toby Miller, CEO at Tranztec Solutions. “EROAD’s customer-focused solutions with such a strong emphasis on connectivity, safety, and the optimized supply chain combined with Tranztec’s open transportation platform gives fleets the ability to effortlessly optimize their in-cab insights and services with EROAD’s advanced features and capabilities.”

Hamilton Caster Appoints Andrew D. Stamp as Director of Sales

Hamilton Caster & Mfg. Co., a 117-year-old industry leader in heavy-duty industrial casters, proudly announces the enhancement of its legacy Super Endurance Caster (SEC) series, now rebranded as the Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster (ZFSEC) series. In addition, Hamilton is introducing the all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Caster (ZFSEC2) series, both of which feature a new heavy-duty 'V-Style' seal designed to elevate performance in the most demanding environments.
The Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster (ZFSEC) series replaces Hamilton’s legacy SEC series, setting a new benchmark for kingpinless caster design in extra heavy-duty applications. Central to this upgrade is the heavy-duty 'V-Style' seal, which offers protection against dirt, debris, and moisture. This advanced sealing technology ensures consistent performance and extends the life of the caster, making it the ideal choice for environments where reliability is critical.
"With the introduction of the V-Style seal, the ZFSEC series is engineered to withstand the harshest conditions while providing zero-fix, 100% maintenance-free operation," said Mark Lippert, president of Hamilton Caster. "This enhancement allows our customers to minimize maintenance costs and downtime, further solidifying Hamilton’s reputation for durability and dependability."
The ZFSEC series retains the robust construction that Hamilton is known for, including a swivel top plate and inner raceway made from forged steel, providing superior strength for shock conditions. Sealed precision ball bearings are also now standard in all wheels, contributing to the maintenance-free performance of the series. Notably, the zerk fittings have been eliminated, as the new design makes them unnecessary.
Complementing the ZFSEC series, Hamilton introduces the all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Wheel Caster (ZFSEC2) series. This dual wheel series is engineered for extra heavy-duty applications where stability, durability, and maintenance-free operation are paramount. Like its counterpart, the ZFSEC2 series leverages the new 'V-Style' seal, ensuring that each caster is fully protected against contaminants that could compromise performance.
Combined with sealed precision ball wheel bearings, this caster series ensures zero-fix, 100% maintenance-free performance. The dual-wheel configuration enhances stability and allows for a lower overall height, offering a perfect blend of strength and maneuverability.
Casters in both series are finished in a durable HAA polyester platinum powder coat and are available in a wide variety of wheel types, allowing for customization based on application needs. For complete wheel specs and product details check out the Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster Landing Page and all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Caster Landing Page.

New Horizon Releases Innovative Functionality for Optimizing Inbound Logistics Scheduling at DCs

ACTON, Massachusetts – September 3, 2024 – New Horizon Soft, LLC (https://www.newhorizon.ai), a global leader in AI-powered supply chain planning software, announced today the release of a new version of its Buyers Workbench procurement planning software. The latest version includes the ability to optimally schedule inbound deliveries, taking into account distribution center (DC) receiving capacity, thus minimizing receiving bottlenecks and lowering inbound logistics costs. A research paper describing the innovative methodology and its deployment at an iconic $10B+ U.S. quick-service restaurant chain was recently published in the peer-reviewed academic journal, the International Journal of Operations Research and Information Systems.

Supply chain organizations typically plan purchase orders without regard to DC receiving capacity. This leads to bottlenecks on some days and underutilized staff on others. New Horizon’s methodology, called Master Purchasing Receipt Scheduling (MPRS), uses a novel algorithm to automatically and optimally schedule deliveries. The algorithm plans deliveries at the time of purchase order creation and results in a steady volume of deliveries and lower planning and logistics costs. While first deployed at a restaurant chain, the methodology is applicable to any manufacturer, wholesaler, retailer, or foodservice company operating high-velocity DCs.
