CHELMSFORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kewill, Inc., a leading provider of multimodal transportation and logistics management solutions for seamless supply chain execution, today announced the release of Kewill MOVE™, a complete, comprehensive platform for managing the complexities of transportation, logistics and trade compliance. The Kewill MOVE platform provides users with a multimodal transportation solution that supports the key business processes for optimized value in supply chain execution and transitions Kewill to an enterprise software platform provider.

According to Gartner, “Supply chain's contribution to business growth overtook improving customer experience as a business priority this year1.” Organizations are faced with the challenge of overseeing global supply chains that are intricate, multi-faceted and often disparate. In order to achieve these priorities, businesses need the ability to seamlessly manage each phase of the supply chain execution process.

The Kewill MOVE platform provides unparalleled monitoring and access, allowing for ultimate control throughout each segment of the supply chain leading to enhanced efficiency and effectiveness and improved customer service.”

Available in both on-premises and SaaS deployment models, the Kewill MOVE platform is used by Logistics Service Providers, Manufacturers and Retailers & Distributors in these solution areas:

  • Trade – From order-to-invoice and from full container to parcel, manage global, regional and local logistics shipments including freight forwarding, transportation and warehousing. Gain early insight into potential supply issues and trade barriers while simultaneously improving management of network volatility.
  • Transport – Benefit from multimodal transportation expertise and capabilities that are unmatched in the industry. More effectively manage air, sea, rail and road requirements for full-load, less than truck load, pallet and parcel deliveries on a local, national, regional or global scale.
