Freightgate has announced that Oceanstar Express has selected Freightgate's Supply Chain Solutions Cloud Platform to enhance its transportation services, with advanced n-dimensional routing for secure fast execution, event management and to improve collaboration with its customers.

Freightgate was the early pioneer for cloud computing and mobile applications within the logistics industry. Freightgate solutions support all Supply Chain Management transportation functions from Procurement, through Rate Management, Optimization, Execution and Visibility to Invoice Audit & Pay. Freightgate's Supply Chain Solutions Cloud Platform enables global shippers, forwarders and carriers to share global logistics information seamlessly on a single common transportation sourcing platform for informed decision-making across the entire network.

Because of its impeccable track record of innovation Freightgate was most recently recognized as a Leading Logistics and Trade Service Provider by World Trade. Oceanstar Express is the first of several transportation service providers who responded to Freightgate's Emerging Supply Chain Trends in 2012 - Why Freightgate is Your Predictable Solution http://freightgate.com/news.php .

Oceanstar Express is an upcoming leader in innovative global logistics and supply chain services. Founded in 2005, Oceanstar Express provides a single point of logistics management and coordination control for global supply chains. From raw materials at the source to finished goods at point-of-purchase, Oceanstar Express manages the supply chain process worldwide.

More companies like Oceanstar Express are exploring vested outsourcing for supply chain and logistics requirements forming closer alliances with transportation software companies specializing in customizable cloud computing solutions. The increasing demand for better collaborative business processes, rate management, and logistics procurement with greater execution capabilities is beyond the knowledge base, response time, and budgets of most in-house I.T. departments.

Freightgate's Supply Chain Solutions are custom-tailored to provide collaborative manageability of freight rates, lead times, capacity allocations, faster quotations, better yields and more sales without straining operating budget and expenditures.

It takes no crystal ball to predict that 2012 will be another tough year for transportation service providers. The bottom-line margin between winning and losing is speed of execution and delivery. Keywords like collaboration, cloud computing, and responsiveness will dominate the supply chain landscape. The winners will be shippers and carriers who form closer alliances with transportation software companies to brainstorm and create better and faster collaborative solutions.
