CHELMSFORD, Mass., June 14, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kewill (LSE: KWL),
a leading provider of software solutions that accelerate global trade
and logistics, today announced the availability of Kewill Shipping
Intelligence(TM) (KSI), a cloud-based shipping analytics solution.
Based on the SPSCommerce.net platform, KSI offers a rich set of
analytics, trending and intelligence data around parcel freight spend
for medium-to-large enterprises, delivering relevant, actionable
visibility and analytics on historical and current transportation
spend.
Kewill KSI enables complete transparency to an organization's existing
shipping data to help determine the optimal mix of carriers and carrier
services. It also helps identify areas for savings from service levels
down to invoice analysis without the capital investment or additional
IT resources.
Kewill Shipping Intelligence is a true business intelligence solution
that can be integrated into other operational, planning and execution
systems to provide a 360 degree view of not just spend, but of
opportunities to optimize inventory placement, shipping processes, and
even labor requirements.
News Facts:
-- Rich, multi-dimensional business analytics tool for in-depth
analysis of your shipping data
-- Full visibility through interactive dashboards, alerts, and ad-hoc
analysis over the web
-- Minimal setup, "start to analysis" is typically a 2-4-week process
-- Minimum to no IT resources required
-- KSI allows the ability to analyze shipping costs by item detail
Supporting Quote:
-- "Shipping expenses are among the largest but most poorly understood
indirect costs in many businesses," said Alan Gold, vice president of
marketing and business development for Kewill Inc. "Manufacturers,
retailers and other shipping intensive companies have long sought a
convenient way to understand their shipping spend, and leverage that
insight into measureable improvements in how they ship goods, deploy
inventory, or select carriers and services. Kewill Shipping Intelligence
is a cloud-based solution that makes the power of business intelligence
available without implementation hassles or cost. That in turn helps
customers bring their transportation spend under control, improving
visibility and improving planning for future spends."
