Capp Offers a Way Out to Airport Truckers and Forwarders ![]() Boston, MA - June 24, 2002 (PRN): Capp Cargo Systems is taking direct aim at a business problem that has vexed the air freight industry for decades: the enormous internal costs airport truckers and forwarders both bear when moving information, invoices and money between them. Capp, announcing today the release of their product suite, indicated that their survey of cartage agents shows that several barriers have prevented most from adopting advanced tools to manage their business - including high cost, difficulty of set-up and use, employee training issues, lack of integration with their accounting software and lack of integration with their freight forwarder clients. "We've developed what cartage agents asked for - simple, straight-forward, affordable software to help them run a better dispatch operation," said Gregg Borgeson, Capp's founder and President. "But in addition, we offer something they didn't expect - complete elimination of the work and daily distractions they face in dealing with billing paperwork and POD requests." Capp's software allows cartage agents to focus on operations quality and profit, while Capp takes on the task of delivering their billing and POD data to each forwarder. And Capp delivers the data exactly as each forwarder prefers, whether it be electronically or in customized paper forms. Capp's secret is a simple but profound change in the decades-old business process made possible by contemporary data synchronization tools. "We've eliminated the paper-chase for the truckers on the front-end, and for the forwarders on the back-end. Our approach is unlike anything else available," Borgeson commented. Borgeson knows first hand the cost to the industry for administering the tens of millions of invoices that move between cartage agents and freight forwarders. He helped found Hellmann Worldwide Logistics in the US and led it as its president for nine years, after having run ASG Forwarding in the mid-80's. "Capp's solution works today to solve a problem that has eaten away at the bottom line of every cartage agent and every freight forwarder in the industry," said Borgeson. "It's a win/win for the cartage agents and forwarders -and the price is right." Capp Cargo Systems, Inc. was formed in the summer of 2001 and is located near Boston in Chelsea, MA. In addition to Mr. Borgeson, its founders include Ray Loehner, formerly an executive with American Airlines, BDP and Radix, and leading financial and technology executives. Monica Trindade, formerly a sales executive with Air France recently joined the company.
