project44 Unveils “Movement GPT” Providing First-Ever Generative AI Assistant for Supply Chain

This groundbreaking capability puts the power of generative AI into the hands of industry professionals for the first time and enables the autonomous supply chain.

project44 Unveils “Movement GPT” Providing First-Ever Generative AI Assistant for Supply Chain

project44, the leading supply chain visibility platform, today announced the launch of a new artificial intelligence within project44’s platform, Movement. Using the capabilities of generative AI, Movement GPT is a breakthrough enhancement that finally delivers on the decades-old promise of autonomous supply chains.

As the launch of ChatGPT has shown, generative AI has the potential to reshape entire industries, including the supply chain industry. However, generative AI is only as good as the data used to train it. project44 is uniquely positioned to deliver a capability like Movement GPT because of its unique dataset gathered from tracking 1 billion shipments representing $1 trillion in customer inventory across 181 countries. project44 is also the only visibility company to cover all modes and geographies within a single platform.


“For the first time, we are training generative AI models to become experts in supply chain,” said Jett McCandless, project44 Founder and CEO. “We are thrilled to deliver Movement GPT to supply chain professionals to make their work more efficient and enable them to overcome the complexities of today's supply chains.”

Since the company’s inception, project44 has been a leader in data science and machine learning, with expertise in neural networks and deep learning technology. The company was quick to realize the transformative power large language models could bring to the supply chain and incorporated the technology into Movement. project44 incorporated top of the line security and followed best practices for the responsible use of AI.

For the first time, Movement GPT enables users to conversationally interact within the Movement platform giving them the ability to dynamically identify shipments using natural language, saving time, improving the overall user experience, and training models to become supply chain experts in the process.

One of the first capabilities released enables users to identify supply chain risks by conversationally interacting with Movement GPT. For example, a line of questioning might look like:
• Show me all of my shipments impacted by weather in northern Europe
• What is the value of the inventory of those shipments?
• Where are those goods destined?
• Do I have more reliable routing options for my next shipment?

This breakthrough enhancement brings a highly interactive and natural language interface to supply chain visibility, making it easier than ever for users to access essential information and manage their shipments. With the power of generative AI, project44's Movement platform becomes an even more robust and efficient tool for supply chain professionals.

project44 is committed to unlocking additional workflows and interactions through its intuitive interface. This release marks a significant milestone for the company and industry, as it leads the market in delivering the most advanced and user-friendly supply chain solutions.

Generative AI has the potential to transform the supply chain, finally creating the autonomous, self-repairing supply chain. Over the coming months, project44 will expand Movement GPT with additional capabilities, including the ability to automate tasks and generate analytics and insights.

Hamilton Caster Appoints Andrew D. Stamp as Director of Sales

Hamilton Caster & Mfg. Co., a 117-year-old industry leader in heavy-duty industrial casters, proudly announces the enhancement of its legacy Super Endurance Caster (SEC) series, now rebranded as the Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster (ZFSEC) series. In addition, Hamilton is introducing the all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Caster (ZFSEC2) series, both of which feature a new heavy-duty 'V-Style' seal designed to elevate performance in the most demanding environments.
The Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster (ZFSEC) series replaces Hamilton’s legacy SEC series, setting a new benchmark for kingpinless caster design in extra heavy-duty applications. Central to this upgrade is the heavy-duty 'V-Style' seal, which offers protection against dirt, debris, and moisture. This advanced sealing technology ensures consistent performance and extends the life of the caster, making it the ideal choice for environments where reliability is critical.
"With the introduction of the V-Style seal, the ZFSEC series is engineered to withstand the harshest conditions while providing zero-fix, 100% maintenance-free operation," said Mark Lippert, president of Hamilton Caster. "This enhancement allows our customers to minimize maintenance costs and downtime, further solidifying Hamilton’s reputation for durability and dependability."
The ZFSEC series retains the robust construction that Hamilton is known for, including a swivel top plate and inner raceway made from forged steel, providing superior strength for shock conditions. Sealed precision ball bearings are also now standard in all wheels, contributing to the maintenance-free performance of the series. Notably, the zerk fittings have been eliminated, as the new design makes them unnecessary.
Complementing the ZFSEC series, Hamilton introduces the all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Wheel Caster (ZFSEC2) series. This dual wheel series is engineered for extra heavy-duty applications where stability, durability, and maintenance-free operation are paramount. Like its counterpart, the ZFSEC2 series leverages the new 'V-Style' seal, ensuring that each caster is fully protected against contaminants that could compromise performance.
Combined with sealed precision ball wheel bearings, this caster series ensures zero-fix, 100% maintenance-free performance. The dual-wheel configuration enhances stability and allows for a lower overall height, offering a perfect blend of strength and maneuverability.
Casters in both series are finished in a durable HAA polyester platinum powder coat and are available in a wide variety of wheel types, allowing for customization based on application needs. For complete wheel specs and product details check out the Spinfinity® Super Endurance Caster Landing Page and all-new Spinfinity® Super Endurance Dual Caster Landing Page.

New Horizon Releases Innovative Functionality for Optimizing Inbound Logistics Scheduling at DCs

ACTON, Massachusetts – September 3, 2024 – New Horizon Soft, LLC (https://www.newhorizon.ai), a global leader in AI-powered supply chain planning software, announced today the release of a new version of its Buyers Workbench procurement planning software. The latest version includes the ability to optimally schedule inbound deliveries, taking into account distribution center (DC) receiving capacity, thus minimizing receiving bottlenecks and lowering inbound logistics costs. A research paper describing the innovative methodology and its deployment at an iconic $10B+ U.S. quick-service restaurant chain was recently published in the peer-reviewed academic journal, the International Journal of Operations Research and Information Systems.

Supply chain organizations typically plan purchase orders without regard to DC receiving capacity. This leads to bottlenecks on some days and underutilized staff on others. New Horizon’s methodology, called Master Purchasing Receipt Scheduling (MPRS), uses a novel algorithm to automatically and optimally schedule deliveries. The algorithm plans deliveries at the time of purchase order creation and results in a steady volume of deliveries and lower planning and logistics costs. While first deployed at a restaurant chain, the methodology is applicable to any manufacturer, wholesaler, retailer, or foodservice company operating high-velocity DCs.
