Meijer Implements LeanLogistics Exchange

Meijer Inc has begun using the LeanLogistics Internet-based private transportation exchange for online tendering, executing, and managing all of its inbound transportation. The system is processing Meijer inbound transactions for full truckload, less-than-truckload (LTL), and consolidated LTL orders.

LeanLogistics provides a secure, scalable environment for transportation e-commerce. Based upon philosophies of Lean Manufacturing, LeanLogistics technology transacts business between shippers and carriers and reduces overall cost of freight movement. This patent-pending technology allows shippers and carriers to manage the entire transportation transaction from customer order to delivery, including payment and settlement, via the Internet.
