Transportation and logistics software provider Maddocks Systems Inc., announced enhancements to its TruckMate for Windows enterprise package to help carriers manage new Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) requirements.

These new features provide the ability to seamlessly transmit the shipment information required by ACE directly from the Maddocks software solution.
"Maddocks Systems Inc. has always been keenly focused on the unique software requirements of transportation carriers that handle cross border shipments," explained Bob Maddocks, president and CEO of Maddocks Systems Inc. "Providing the tools to manage ACE within the TruckMate system will help our clients maintain compliance, eliminate border waiting time and easily adapt to future cross border security requirements."
Under ACE, before reaching the border, trucks are required to submit an e-manifest through the web-based ACE Secure Data Portal or through a Customs and Border Protection approved Electronic Data Interchange. Also an e-release, the electronic process by which CBP authorizes the release of goods from the carrier or warehouse to an importer will be required for shipments heading into the United States.
Using the detailed shipment information already captured in TruckMate, Maddocks clients will be able to submit required information through TruckMate software. Submitting the manifest early allows border security agencies to pre-screen the manifest through multiple checks before the truck arrives.
