Information Systems Experts (ISE), LLC, a leader in Microsoft Business Intelligence and Wireless application development for the Transportation and Logistics Industries has opened a new office in Jacksonville, Florida.

“It just makes incredible sense” said Jeff Hastings, president of ISE.  “Over the years, we have done a fantastic job taking care of our Jacksonville customers from a distance.  In our line of work long distance relationships are not that uncommon, but I’m really excited about the level of service we will be able to provide by actually being there.”

ISE is no stranger to Jacksonville. They have been helping several of the area’s largest Transportation & Logistics companies with their technical development strategies for over a decade. And most recently have had tremendous success increasing driver productivity through development of a wireless based driver communication system as well as enterprise system integration.

“Our business is complex, but it is really quite simple. We help companies leverage technology to better manage and operate their businesses.  Most organizations already have a substantial investment in their enterprise system, so we focus a lot on integration. Our work usually involves leveraging that enterprise system, enhancing it with applications that better fit business processes, all with a focus on increasing productivity that ultimately will help reduce operating expenses.”

“Our success is a tribute to the exceptional work of the team we’ve assembled, and a commendation of our particular business model,” commented Jeff Hastings, president of ISE. “Our approach has been threefold:  hire extraordinarily talented people, deliver quality work, and build long-term relationships by focusing on bringing the highest value to our clients.”

“We are excited. We have a great story to tell and the new location will help us continue to provide world class business solutions for our existing customers. And as word gets out, with all the Transportation & Logistics activity in the area it is a “natural fit” location for the continued growth of our organization.”

ISE is a Microsoft Gold partner offering custom applications and integration services that encompass Business and Systems Requirements, Analysis and Design, Project Management, Software Development, Quality Assurance and Testing, Training, and Maintenance and Support.

ISE has partnered with a Fortune 500 Intermodal carrier to develop a custom Driver Settlement solution to expedite routine settlement procedures. The application allows drivers to print paperwork from a mobile device to a printer located at the ramp where they work. As a result, the driver can submit all paperwork required for daily settlement electronically. System-generated information capture and verification greatly reduces errors and expedites end-of-shift driver submission requirements. Captured information is indexed and associated with the required PODs, Bills of Lading, Assessorial data relating to a specific move. This new, streamlined driver settlement process will save each driver in the fleet approximately 40 hours per year.
