The merged company will offer a variety of technologies for networked trading partner connectivity, warehouse management, transportation management and route delivery.
In a press release announcing the merger, Cornell said, “This combination brings extremely complementary technology to both Accellos and HighJump customers.” He noted that customers were “rethinking their supply chain and its underlying technology,” as a result of what’s termed omni-channel commerce – where retailers, for instance, create a network with their stores, e-commerce sites and distribution centers to fulfill customer orders.
According to a company statement, the combined company remains committed to Accellos and HighJump products lines going forward. Accellos’ products include systems for warehouse management, third party logistics, transportation management, trading partner integration, retail store operations, parcel shipping and others.
