Logistics Security & Recovery Company Tracks Cargo Shipments with TeamWorks BPM 

AUSTIN, Texas -- Lombardi([R]) (www.lombardisoftware.com), the leader in Business Process Management (BPM) suite software for Global 2000 companies, today announced that FreightWatch Security Net, a subsidiary of the FreightWatch Group (FWG), is deploying the award-winning TeamWorks([R]) BPM platform in support of the organization's new FSNlogistics shipment tracking and compliance monitoring solution.

FreightWatch is an international logistics security agency for Fortune 500 manufacturers that expertly identifies threats and vulnerabilities to their high-value supply and distribution chains. It develops and implements custom loss-reduction programs to protect the products of large manufacturers, third-party logistics service providers, and their insurers. The new FSNlogistics solution extends the company's security reach to in-transit cargo itself, not just the carrier's vehicle.

"Our customers ship hundreds of thousands of high-value loads each year, so using software that is both reliable and scalable is critical to our success," said Bill Games, President of FreightWatch Security Net. "Lombardi's BPM software offered us the most functionality and flexibility while delivering the performance our business demands."
