More than most, the various modes of transportation have achieved success because of information systems and the great strides in coordination and control such systems have enabled .

We have worked for:

Our work for transportation carriers has ranged from:

Determining how to fundamentally change a business operation by introducing technology into the process.
Identifying ways to leverage a company's knowledge and reputation in transportation to enter emerging information-based services businesses.
We were instrumental in establishing the operations of a major east coast passenger rail operation by transforming a state contracting agency into a full service operating entity.
