Logistics technology provider Teknowlogi has launched a supply chain analytics solution that uses similar artificial intelligence (AI) to the technology currently deployed in industries like medicine and stock trading, the company said Thursday.

The Kennesaw, Ga.-based company says its Logistics Expert System (LES) can assess, analyze, provide recommendations for, and execute change for numerous logistical and business situations that affect shipping industry players. Those include shippers, third-party logistics providers (3PLs), freight forwarders, less-than-truckload (LTL) brokers, truckload brokers, LTL carriers, truckload carriers, drayage carriers, cartage agents, couriers, and parcel carriers.

The cloud-based LES platform is powered by Teknowlogi's AI-driven platform, a product called Tai that incorporates business process management and consulting intelligence into its workflow. Together, LES and Tai combine transportation management systems (TMS), mobile intelligence (MI), integration intelligence (II), business intelligence (BI), consulting intelligence (CI), and AI in a single platform, Teknowlogi claims.

"Companies that continue to manage their logistics with outdated systems will be unable to compete," Teknowlogi CEO Spencer Askew said in a release. "Technology platforms that incorporate artificial intelligence are already being used to successfully emulate human decision-making in such complex areas as medical diagnosis and stock exchange trading. The logistics industry has a long-running and unmet need for this type of solution."

In addition, the firm's Tai Mobile Intelligence platform enables on-demand self-service for business-process and application programming interface (API) management for all types of asset carriers, 3PLs, and shippers. This one-stop shop enables end users to address "hot points" such as shipment visibility and shipment management, trailer management, and trailer/truck capacity management from any location, according to Teknowlogi.

Pricing for Tai and Tai Mobile Intelligence is based on monthly consumption.

How clever is that chatbot?

Oh, you work in logistics, too? Then you’ve probably met my friends Truedi, Lumi, and Roger.

No, you haven’t swapped business cards with those guys or eaten appetizers together at a trade-show social hour. But the chances are good that you’ve had conversations with them. That’s because they’re the online chatbots “employed” by three companies operating in the supply chain arena—TrueCommerce, Blue Yonder, and Truckstop. And there’s more where they came from. A number of other logistics-focused companies—like ChargePoint, Packsize, FedEx, and Inspectorio—have also jumped in the game.

Experts: U.S. companies need strategies to pay costs of Trump tariffs

With the hourglass dwindling before steep tariffs threatened by the new Trump Administration will impose new taxes on U.S. companies importing goods from abroad, organizations need to deploy strategies to handle those spiraling costs.

American companies with far-flung supply chains have been hanging for weeks in a “wait-and-see” situation to learn if they will have to pay increased fees to U.S. Customs and Border Enforcement agents for every container they import from certain nations. After paying those levies, companies face the stark choice of either cutting their own profit margins or passing the increased cost on to U.S. consumers in the form of higher prices.

J.B. Hunt launches solar farm to power its three HQ buildings

Supply chain solution provider J.B. Hunt Transport Services Inc. has launched a large-scale solar facility that will generate enough electricity to offset up to 80% of the power used by its three main corporate campus buildings in Lowell, Arkansas.

The 40-acre solar facility in Gentry, Arkansas, includes nearly 18,000 solar panels and 10,000-plus bi-facial solar modules to capture sunlight, which is then converted to electricity and transmitted to a nearby electric grid for Carroll County Electric. The facility will produce approximately 9.3M kWh annually and utilize net metering, which helps transfer surplus power onto the power grid.

Geodis goes airborne to speed cycle counts

As a contract provider of warehousing, logistics, and supply chain solutions, Geodis often has to provide customized services for clients.

That was the case recently when one of its customers asked Geodis to up its inventory monitoring game—specifically, to begin conducting quarterly cycle counts of the goods it stored at a Geodis site. Trouble was, performing more frequent counts would be something of a burden for the facility, which still conducted inventory counts manually—a process that was tedious and, depending on what else the team needed to accomplish, sometimes required overtime.
