| Source: eCapital
LAS VEGAS, Aug.  07, 2018  (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- eCapital LLC , a leader in accelerating payments for transportation and third party logistics (3PL) businesses, today announced the eCapital Visibility tool, powered by its partnership with 10-4 Systems , a Trimble brand. Delivering real-time tracking and status information on drivers and loads, the Visibility tool eliminates the need for check calls to determine physical location of fleets and goods moving across the supply chain. Small fleets and owner/operators can easily offer their load sources – which include freight brokers, commercial shippers, and all shipment stakeholders – automated, real-time status updates that are more convenient, seamless, and add value to the logistics management process. “By partnering with 10-4 Systems, we’re tapping into proven applications and technologies for the transportation industry,” said Hussein Yahfoufi, eCapital’s Vice President for Technology and Products. “Empowering visibility across the transportation lifecycle not only aligns well with eCapital’s focus on helping carriers run a better business, but also supports our commitment to making things simple for our clients. Automated, real-time tracking capabilities are typically only available in ‘full featured’ transportation and fleet management systems (TMS). The Visibility tool, offered for free, is embedded within our portal and doesn’t even require a separate login. Today, our small fleet clients can differentiate themselves, competing more effectively through smarter processes and better customer service.”
“As logistics becomes increasingly data driven, it’s smart business to capitalize on partnerships and peer expertise. Working with eCapital, we’re enabling visibility as a smart new feature in their digital toolset for streamlined operations and fast payment,” said Sean Kelly, Director of Product Management, 10-4 Systems. “Small fleets now have access to a full range of modern business tools – including transparency into the lifecycle of each shipment without a costly TMS commitment.”
The eCapital Visibility tool is part of eCapital Connect, the company’s suite of digital tools designed to help clients efficiently manage, fund, and grow transportation businesses. Drivers and fleet owners simply share a link with their customer; updates are provided instantly and automatically, arming customers with insight into location, anticipated time of delivery, and status of at-risk shipments without time-consuming check calls and activities.

15th Sep 2017
SUNNYVALE, Calif. , Sept.Â Trimble (NASDAQ TRMB) announced today that it has acquired privately held 10 4 Systems, a provider of advanced, multimodal shipment visibility solutions and related technologies for shippers and transportation providers. 10 4 solutions offer real time shipment visibility, regardless of provider or mode, to shippers, third party logistics providers and carriers of all sizes. The acquisition expands Trimble's portfolio of Transportation Management Systems (TMS) to include an established cloud based solution for small carriers as well as a shipper RFP platform. Financial terms were not disclosed. Headquartered in Boulder, Colo.   , 10-4 Systems offers a comprehensive, highly configurable information platform that provides visibility at the individual shipment level, driving collaboration between shippers and carriers for increased efficiency, improved compliance and reduced transportation costs. The solution includes SKU-level detail, dynamic ETAs and other capabilities needed to provide the detailed shipment visibility that is becoming a standard expectation of shippers and consignees. "This acquisition will advance our mission to transform the way the world moves freight by providing innovative transactional, visibility, decision support and optimization solutions that benefit participants at every level of the supply chain," said David W. Wangler  , president of Trimble Transportation Enterprise.

Gartner identified visibility as the "No. 1 supply chain initiative" based on results from its 2016 User Wants and Needs Survey. Demand for end-to-end visibility is being driven by the rise of online-only and omni-channel commerce, which is causing shippers to rethink traditional inventory positions and transportation networks. "We are excited to bring the benefits of our advanced enterprise visibility platform to the thousands of supply chain partners that rely on Trimble's Transportation Enterprise solutions," said Travis Rhyan  , president and CEO, 10-4 Systems. "Trimble has a clear commitment to offering leading-edge technologies and collaborative solutions that enable customers to increase efficiency, profitability and long-term competitiveness."
