Austin, TX (PRWEB) June 8, 2005 -- Fortigo, Inc. announced today that it has
been selected as a Top 100 Logistics IT Provider for 2005 by Inbound Logistics
magazine. The annual Top 100 Logistics IT Providers are selected from over 500

"As supply chains become increasingly complex, and
as shippers continue to source from a variety of places, it becomes essential to
leverage technology to bring more strategic value to enterprise logistics,"
stated Dr. George Kontoravdis, founder and president of Fortigo.
"So
shippers should be looking at new logistics IT alternatives, and specifically
solutions such as Fortigo that supply strategic logistics technology without
burdening constrained IT resources," added Kontoravdis.
"Given the rapid
pace of today's competitive business environment and the need for technology
that can help companies leverage logistics strategy, both locally and globally
as a competitive advantage, Fortigo offers a modular approach that allows
companies to select the logistics IT solutions to meet their specific and
ever-changing business needs," stated Felecia Stratton, editor, Inbound
Logistics. "Providing logistics and technology leadership, even at today's
break-neck speed of business, is one of the many reasons Fortigo was selected by
Inbound Logistics editors as one of this year's Top 100 Logistics IT
providers."
Fortigo reduces shipping costs, generally upwards of 10% of a
company's revenue, by automating, optimizing and auditing logistics operations.
Fortigo automates manual processes, optimizes key business decisions and audits
carrier compliance to reduce logistics costs, increase profitability, enhance
customer satisfaction and build competitive advantage for companies with
mid-to-high volume shipping requirements. In addition, Fortigo's on-demand
