Consolidated Chassis Management Introduces New Website as Company Evolves to Meet Market Demand

Consolidated Chassis Management (CCM), the leading cooperative chassis pool manager, announced today that is introducing a new website as company evolves its business model in response to marketplace dynamics and customer demand. The enhanced site will offer its customers a more comprehensive and easier-to-use tool for retrieving information and accessing key areas of focus, including login pages for CCM systems, M&R forms and information, and Resources for users of the pool.

“CCM is growing and evolving, and we are proud to launch a fresh, modern website that reflects where the company is going,” said Mike Wilson, CEO, CCM. “We listened to our stakeholders and designed a highly organized site with easy access to critical information and going forward will house access to a new and seamless onboarding tool for truck drivers joining SACP 3.0.”


Driving CCM’s growth and evolution is the development of the next generation of the South Atlantic Chassis Pool (SACP 3.0), which will occupy its own section of the CCM website including a portal for signing up, a list of locations, and contact information for customers to be able to reach the appropriate parties within the organization.

Within the next year, the SACP 3.0 chassis provisioning model will shift to the single provider utility model, which offers the market a quality, upgraded, state-of-the-art chassis pool owned and managed by CCM. The SACP 3.0 will continue to be the largest fully interoperable chassis pool in the US with over 75 locations throughout the Southeast.

“SACP 3.0 represents the future of chassis provisioning and CCM is prepared to continue to move the company forward to meet the demands of the market. Our website redesign as well as our recent move to state-of-the-art offices Rockaway, NJ, are two ways we are demonstrating our commitment to properly serve our customers and support our employees,” said Wilson.

Consistently evolving to respond to the ever-changing needs of the marketplace, CCM uses its unique combination of industry management expertise, best-in-class offerings and a state-of-the-art technology platform to simplify chassis provisioning and support supply chain fluidity.

From pingpong diplomacy to supply chain diplomacy?

There’s a photo from 1971 that John Kent, professor of supply chain management at the University of Arkansas, likes to show. It’s of a shaggy-haired 18-year-old named Glenn Cowan grinning at three-time world table tennis champion Zhuang Zedong, while holding a silk tapestry Zhuang had just given him. Cowan was a member of the U.S. table tennis team who participated in the 1971 World Table Tennis Championships in Nagoya, Japan. Story has it that one morning, he overslept and missed his bus to the tournament and had to hitch a ride with the Chinese national team and met and connected with Zhuang.

Cowan and Zhuang’s interaction led to an invitation for the U.S. team to visit China. At the time, the two countries were just beginning to emerge from a 20-year period of decidedly frosty relations, strict travel bans, and trade restrictions. The highly publicized trip signaled a willingness on both sides to renew relations and launched the term “pingpong diplomacy.”

California moves a step closer to requiring EV sales only by 2035

Federal regulators today gave California a green light to tackle the remaining steps to finalize its plan to gradually shift new car sales in the state by 2035 to only zero-emissions models — meaning battery-electric, hydrogen fuel cell, and plug-in hybrid cars — known as the Advanced Clean Cars II Rule.

In a separate move, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) also gave its approval for the state to advance its Heavy-Duty Omnibus Rule, which is crafted to significantly reduce smog-forming nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from new heavy-duty, diesel-powered trucks.
