The SOC 2 compliance demonstrates to customers and prospects that Omni Logistics has the capability to handle sensitive data throughout its supply chain operations and provide reliable solutions. Through ongoing monitoring, annual renewal, and external third-party audit certification/verification, this underscores the ongoing commitment to data integrity.

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.
