"As each PO is represented by its respective PO line, the buyer can keep track of each order in transit," explained Arnold Lee, vice president of Hecny Group. "Given all the communications are done in the same platform, this visibility minimizes cross-referencing and reduces duplicate manual procedures," he further added.

The inaugural project is to work in conjunction with Hecny Shipping Limited’s longtime strategic partner - Global Link Logistics - a leading logistics provider in furniture movement from the Fareast to North America. "I am truly excited about the added benefits made avail to our valued customers through this connectivity system. Direct information sharing is definitely the way to go." Said Chad Rosenberg, CEO of Global Link Logistics. A working team is now doing all preparation work and this project is scheduled to be rolled out in three months' time. This Descartes' 20/20 Visibility Program shall be introduced to Hecny Group's VIP customers and other agent partners in due course.
“Logistics management technology that enhances customer relationships continues to play a key role in driving competitive advantage for leading third-party logistics providers and freight forwarders like Hecny” , said Manuel Pietra, Descartes co-chief executive officer and president. Incorporating 20/20 Visibility into Hecny’s already innovative logistics operations will enhance customer value through the delivery of shipment information as it happens.
