Werner Enterprises (NASDAQ: WERN), a premier transportation and
logistics provider, announces that Carrier’s EDGE™, the company’s
new carrier platform, was selected as a recipient of Supply &
Demand Chain Executive’s Top Supply Chain Projects Award for 2021.
Launched in 2021, Carrier’s EDGE is designed to
offer increased visibility and streamline communications for
Werner’s alliance carriers. Through Carrier’s EDGE, alliance
carriers can gain immediate visibility to Werner freight, book
loads at the touch of a button, maintain preferences, view tracking
information, buy or sell equipment and communicate directly with
Werner associates. In addition, qualified carriers can access load
offerings, view historical load data and insurance, upload
documentation and manage available capacity. Smart recommendations
based on the carrier’s own preferences are also shared, based on
previous offers and loads.
The Top Supply Chain Projects (formerly known as
SDCE 100) spotlights successful and innovative transformation
projects that deliver bottom-line value to small, medium and large
enterprises across a range of supply chain functions. These
projects show how supply chain solution and service providers help
their customers and clients achieve supply chain excellence and
prepare their supply chains for success.
“The supply chain industry has been challenged
with a host of supply chain disruptions over the last year. Yet,
the winners on this list continued to re-tool and innovate,” says
Marina Mayer, editor for Supply & Demand Chain Executive and
Food Logistics. “Whether it be moving a customer to a cloud-based
solution or implementing a more sustainable shipping option, these
top supply chain projects reflect the supply chain industry’s
strength and resilience to overcome disruptions and work better,
smarter and more efficiently in the years ahead.”
Carrier’s EDGE is a recent innovation within
Werner EDGE, the company’s technology and innovation initiative
that was launched in 2020 to develop new solutions and offerings
for drivers, shippers, carriers and associates, while optimizing
the entire ecosystem.
“Carrier’s EDGE is a key initiative under our
innovation arm, Werner EDGE. Through this solution, we provide an
enhanced carrier experience to our alliance carriers, including the
self-service technology they require and increased communication
with Werner associates, all while being rewarded for their loyalty
and usage,” says Werner’s Executive Vice President and Chief
Information Officer Daragh Mahon. “We’re honored to be named as a
Top Supply Chain Projects award recipient and look forward to
driving the industry forward with additional enhancements and
solutions.”
