FourKites®, the #1 real-time supply chain visibility platform,
announced a new alliance with Infosys, (NYSE: INFY), a global
leader in next-generation digital services and consulting, to
accelerate the delivery of best-in-class supply chain process
innovations and technology solutions. Infosys brings decades of
experience in designing and implementing supply chain operations
and logistics solutions that optimize the entire ecosystem. Infosys
selected FourKites as a real-time visibility partner based on
FourKites’ industry-leading technology, the world’s largest network
of shippers, and proven ability to rapidly deliver industry-first
innovations.
“FourKites pioneered real-time freight visibility and continues
to lead the industry in helping shippers, carriers, brokers and
3PLs improve on-time delivery and orchestrate their supply chains
based on actionable data and predictive intelligence,” said Karmesh
Vaswani, EVP & Global Head Consumer, Retail & Logistics,
Infosys. “We’re very excited to bring FourKites’ global, multimodal
visibility solutions to our customers worldwide so they can
realize the value of end-to-end, real-time freight visibility."
COVID-19 related economic impact, capacity shortages and trade
tensions have roiled supply chains thereby accelerating the move to
visibility solutions that help supply chain professionals to
proactively manage their operations and ensure the timely delivery
of shipments. This relationship aims to help meet this surge in
demand through joint go-to-market programs and implementation
services. Most importantly, it certifies Infosys to market
FourKites’ entire suite of solutions and also leverage Infosys’
expertise in complex global supply chain and logistics functions
within customers’ existing environments.

challenge that necessitates cooperation, collaboration and active
partnerships between systems integrators and solutions providers,”
said FourKites CEO and Founder Mathew Elenjickal. “Infosys is
uniquely accomplished and qualified to understand customers’ global
requirements and integrate FourKites into their existing
infrastructures. We’re honored to be selected as Infosys’ real-time
visibility partner, and excited to help more customers realize
