Hill Brothers Transportation Selects Trip Alert/Swap Advice Decision Support Software from IDSC
08.06.2007 Richardson, TX -

Integrated Decision Support Corporation (IDSC), a leading provider of decision support software exclusively for the truckload carrier, welcomes Hill Brothers Transportation as a new customer of IDSC's Trip Alert/Swap Advice® software. Hill Brothers Transportation is an industry-leading provider of dry-van and refrigerated services and is an existing customer of IDSC's Netwise Enterprise® and Expert Fuel® solutions.

"We've added Trip Alert/Swap Advice to provide us with an even greater level of service and security for our customers while increasing our profitability momentum," said Jack Christensen, Operations Analyst of Hill Brothers Transportation.

Trip Alert/Swap Advice not only provides total visibility of assets and best-in-class exception and event management--it also increases driver time-at-home without impacting profit potential. Trip Alert automatically identifies the locations and times when two power units will be feasible to swap load assignments. Trip Alert recommends those swap opportunities which improve utilization, on time performance, and driver home time. Trip Alert provides built-in capabilities to identify candidates for in-transit swaps--leveraging the data to maximize driver and equipment utilization, prevent service failures, and increase driver time at home.

"We look forward to supporting Hill Brothers' business priorities," said Dave Harris, VP of Sales at IDSC. "Our customers quickly realize the value of IDSC's solutions and they are integral to helping them achieve optimal fleet performance."
