ShipXpress Acquires RailSync™ Software System For Shortline Railroads |
|
| |
| |
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (June 19, 2007) – ShipXpress, a leading provider of web-based rail logistics software
and services, has acquired the RailSync rail operations management system for shortline railroads from
Railinc, the information technology subsidiary of the American Association of Railroads (AAR).
RailSync includes three separate applications to manage daily railroad operations, track daily car hire
expenses, create EDI transactions, and generate Interline Settlement Systems transactions from waybill
creation through concurrence and settlement. The applications, which are accessed via the Internet
from any PC, can be implemented as an integrated suite or installed modularly for independent
processing.
“RailSync is a perfect fit for our business,” ShipXpress Chief Executive Officer Charith Perera said. “With
our technical expertise and extensive experience in the rail industry, we will be able to offer shortline
and regional railroads an easy-to-use solution that elevates their operating efficiency.”
RailSync currently manages thousands of carloads each day for railroads throughout the United States
and Canada.
RailSync will complement ShipXpress’ signature ShipX™ suite of rail-focused logistics applications and
services for industrial shippers, which is used by many Fortune 500 companies in the chemical,
agriculture, and forest products industries. |
