DALLAS, June 25 /PRNewswire/ --

- Increase service levels, lower inventories, and connect International 
and Domestic Logistics Operations

One Network Enterprises, a pioneer in community-based on demand supply
chain solutions, has introduced its new global container and shipment
prioritization capabilities designed to increase service levels, lower
inventories, reduce supply variability, and minimize detention costs and
other port fees by providing multi-leg container visibility and
prioritization. According to Gartner, One Network's Demand Driven Logistics

global end-to-end transportation product footprint.

The new solution will help One Network's global customers by providing:

      - Global visibility and accurate container status information in a
        centralized solution
      - Automated and coordinated container prioritization at the port based
        upon a customer's Plant, Manufacturing, Distribution Center, and/or
        store needs, capacities, detention costs and other port fees
      - Exception based notification when execution deviates from plan or has
        a potential negative impact on the plan
      - Reduction of information flow latency among the multiple parties
        involved in an international movement (Shipper, Carrier, Freight,
        Forwarder, Customs, etc.)
      - Improved execution management since delivery issues are highlighted
        proactively to enable shipper personnel to focus on the right issues
        helping reduce supply variability



"With this release the Demand Driven Logistics solution provides our
customers the ability to connect their international and domestic
transportation operations with their supply and demand," says Terry Turner,
One Network President, "In many large companies this is a disconnected
process across many ERP, transportation planning, and 3rd party systems
resulting in informational latencies that in turn results in excess
inventory, costly detention costs, and de-centralized planning and execution.
We are seeing a trend toward companies integrating their international and
domestic transportation operations with their supply and demand. And we
believe we are one of the few companies that are architected to deliver a
fully integrated solution."

The Global Container and Shipment Prioritization capabilities boost One
Network's presence as a full-life cycle global logistics solution. By
deploying the solution companies can expect to improve service levels, reduce
inventory, reduce costs, and increase productivity.
