FAIR LAWN, N.J., Sept. 16, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via PRWEB - The software development team behind the critically acclaimed UltraShipTMS solution for transportation automation and optimization earned a Silver Stevie® Award in the 'IT Team of the Year' category at The 12th Annual American Business Awards in San Francisco last Friday night. The IT team at the transportation management software provider is the same group responsible for developing the LoadFusion Transportation Optimizer software that took home the Gold Stevie in the category of 'Transportation Product of the Year' for 2013 . The current award is timely, as the Ultra IT Team continues to release a number of exceptional new transportation software products in 2014 including a new Yard Management System (YMS) slated to officially roll out later this month.
Ultra's IT Team was nominated for embodying teamwork with client organizations, expressing exceptional willingness to examine all requests issued by every client, and for being open minded when considering how one client's special request might be leveraged by many other clients.
Darren Graham, Ultra's Director of IT said, "This philosophy of treating client ideas the same as IT team ideas is at the core of Ultra's ability to innovate where others play it safe. I am honored to accept on behalf of my team of tireless professionals."
UltraShipTMS President, Nicholas Carretta added, "Our clients and Ultra leadership have asked a lot of our IT resources in the last 12 months and they always rise to the challenge. In the past year, we've asked a lot of this team. We've not only added a significant volume of new client implementations, but we've also relied on the to successfully build and deploy new private fleet management TMS tools; an iPad interface for TMS; a new suite of data visualizers in the Ultra eDash; weather and traffic overlays in the optimizer maps; and the imminent YMS application. These guys are doing some exceptional work and they truly deserve the recognition!"
