Ryder System Inc. has been awarded a multi-year transportation management contract from Ohio-based Noveon Inc., which produces and markets technologically advanced specialty chemicals.

Under the contract, Ryder will develop and manage a Web-enabled transportation, carrier and procurement solution supporting the company's North American manufacturing and distribution centers. Additionally, Ryder will provide on-site management, procurement of transportation, routing instructions, compliance management and freight bill audit and payment.
"One of our biggest challenges in sourcing transportation is to find ways to further reduce costs, optimize transport lanes and leverage services with a select group of qualified carriers," said Michael Hamel, director of global sourcing for Noveon. "Ryder's well-developed carrier management information system combined with their purchasing power in the industry allows us to evaluate and leverage the best transportation buying opportunities to create maximum value."
