Overhaul launches AI-powered solution RiskGPT for Real-Time Risk Mitigation

Overhaul just launched its latest feature, RiskGPT. This solution uses AI to predict, prevent, and immediately respond to in-transit shipment risk, significantly reducing the risk of cargo theft.

Overhaul, a software-based, supply-chain visibility, risk, compliance, and insurance solution for the world's leading brands, has strengthened its platform with the latest AI innovation for ongoing advancements in predicting, preventing and immediately responding to in-transit shipment risk. RiskGPT is a new feature that exponentially improves incident response times and accuracy and provides corrective courses of action to those issues in real time, significantly reducing the risk of cargo theft.

An estimated $1.2 trillion in cargo value is set to move through Overhaul’s platform this year. With RiskGPT in their arsenal, users can instantly and intuitively process high-risk events to better manage and mitigate a greater volume of risks. The feature is trained on extensive sources of proprietary intelligence to help Overhaul employees and customers act on events that require human intervention.


For example, an operator could ask RiskGPT how to best respond to a specific customer event with unique circumstances. Because RiskGPT’s model is trained on Overhaul’s extensive data, that operator will get a customized, detailed answer with a high degree of contextual accuracy that can quickly resolve the problem, and is then freed up to handle other challenging issues.

“Global cargo thefts continue to rise, and AI has been crucial in giving companies more visibility around potential incidents,” said Barry Conlon, CEO and Founder of Overhaul. “But we wanted to take that a step further. Even if you can predict an issue and report on it, how do you know how to actively correct it? RiskGPT will help users do that almost instantaneously, bringing our supply chain visibility and proactive risk management capabilities to new heights. Our current theft prevention success rates were topping 98% before RiskGPT, so with it, I am confident we will bring that rate up.”

RiskGPT is the latest addition to Overhaul's Risk Intelligence product line. It is made available through Overhaul’s partnership with Microsoft and the Microsoft Supply Chain Center. By using its own data in conjunction with the Azure OpenAI Service Studio, Overhaul can continuously fine-tune the language model to offer unparalleled results unique and personalized for each supply chain. Keeping privacy in mind, this combination gives users the advanced language AI capabilities needed, along with the security and enterprise promise of Azure. It is just one of several developments in Overhaul’s AI-driven intelligence product line that will be expanded throughout this year.

Customer excitement is already building:

"As a global shipper of high value cargo, we understand the importance of fast and effective response to in-transit shipment risk,” said Kok Ee Lian, Global Supply Chain Director at Dyson. “Overhaul continues to show true innovation in its product suite and RiskGPT could be a game-changer with the potential to significantly improve our ability to manage risk with real-time response and corrective action - enabling us to better ensure the safety and security of our cargo.”

“With the launch of RiskGPT, Overhaul has yet again demonstrated its commitment to driving innovation and pushing the boundaries of technology in the supply chain industry,” said Mitat Aydindag, President of Arvato for North America. “We are proud to partner with a company that consistently delivers cutting-edge solutions that empower businesses to manage risk with greater agility and precision.”

Overhaul’s recent acquisition of SensiGuard will give customers across Latin America, Asia, and Europe access to RiskGPT to optimize supply chain operations and security worldwide.

RiskGPT will be available to an early access user group within Overhaul’s global operations centers this month and the company will be bringing forward customer facing capabilities later this year.

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.
