The Information Technology & Logistics Council of the American Trucking Associations has named J. Braxton Vick and Vicki L. Schluter to serve as the council's first chair and vice chair in 2008.
Braxton Vick is the senior vice president of corporate planning and development for Southeastern Freight Lines, a Lexington, S.C., truckload carrier. Vicki Schluter is the vice president of information solutions for YRC Worldwide of Overland Park, Kan.
As new technologies gain a foothold in daily trucking operations, industry executives must remain focused on forming standards and serving as a resource to other carriers, said Vick.
He said drawing more attention to the best technology and logistics operations in the industry is among his top priorities as ITLC chairman.
"Our vision is to provide a venue to discuss and learn leading-edge solutions to solve the technical and process problems facing the trucking and logistics industry. Our focus will be on providing our members with information they can take back and put into practice," said Vick.
Vick and Schluter were announced as the new ITLC chairman and vice chairman at the group's Nov. 19 board meeting.
"The ITLC can be a great organization for standards and professional development for the motor carrier industry, and I am looking forward to helping develop it to its full potential," said Schluter.
ITLC supports the interests of the trucking industry's information technology and logistics professionals. ITLC is committed to educating members, developing industry best practices and technology guidelines and providing legislative and regulatory advocacy programs.
