Computer Horizons Chosen to Architect e-Business Environment for Guaranteed Overnight Delivery - G.O.D. -.Business Editors MOUNTAIN LAKES, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 25, 2000 The eB Solutions division of Computer Horizons Corp. (CHC) (NASDAQ: CHRZ), a leader in a new breed of end-to-end e-Solutions providers, announced they have been awarded a contract by Guaranteed Overnight Delivery (G.O.D.), a leading innovator in freight transportation.

Later this year, shipping partners will be able to remotely scan in delivery receipts and bills of lading and customers will have direct access to the latest shipping rate information. Concurrent with these front-end systems implementations, G.O.D. will initiate a back-office business process re-engineering project aimed at improving the efficiencies of inventory management, truck loading management and order processing. G.O.D plans to fully leverage the Web long-term as an enabling platform from which to continue its legacy of customer-centric innovation in the trucking industry. "I needed a company who had the depth of technical knowledge, project management experience and flexibility required to help us realize our vision of an E-based freight management company," said Walter Riley, founder and CEO of G.O.D.
