May 11, 2009
Inovis recently announced that Active On-Demand, a provider of on-demand transportation management services, has selected Inovis to automate the delivery of electronic invoices and shipment notices across its customer base of carriers and shippers.
Active On-Demand's APT is an Internet-based transportation management system (TMS) that saves customers 20-45% in unscheduled transportation costs. In its third year as a software-as-a-service (SaaS), APT connects commercial shippers with hand-delivered couriers, ground express truckers and dedicated air charters, matching requests to quotes within minutes and managing the end-to-end shipment process.
Together, Active On-Demand and Inovis fast-tracked an implementation project engagement that was measured in just a few weeks.
"We are very pleased with the fruits of our partnership with Inovis," stated Chris Healy, Chief Executive Officer of Active Aero Group, Active On-Demand's parent company. "The rapid integration with Inovis products truly enhances APT's world class feature set and stands as a testimonial to Inovis' software engineering talent."
Inovis is enabling two new features in Active On-Demand's latest offering, APT v3.0, also announced recently:
Electronic Invoice Delivery, improving cash flow by reducing accounts receivable cycle time Shipment Status Visibility, saving staff time by integrating data into customer's back-office systems
"Active On-Demand is the kind of innovative company that we seek when looking for business partners", said Jon Gatrell, VP Product Marketing of Inovis. He added, "Automating the invoice process and shipment visibility is a win-win for Active On-Demand and their customers."
