Alternative Mailing & Shipping Systems helps the environment by "Selling Green" when ever possible.
Recycling Mailing & Shipping Equipment saves potentially millions of pounds of landfill and hazardous waste. In 1992 when AMSS started, one of our goals was to recycle office equipment while helping protecting the environment. We are proud to state that over 75% of the equipment that our customers acquire is remanufactured/recycled.
 
Based on AMSS stringent remanufacturing/recycling process we often have less service calls than new equipment that we compete against.
AMSS diligently hunts down automation equipment all over the world that is scheduled to be disposed of. Of that equipment only a select few machines that pass our stringent requirements and will be completely remanufactured/recycled back into our customers offices. The rest of the office machines are parted out based on the recycle ability of parts. The parts that are selected for recycling get selected for reuse back in to existing machines in the field.
 
Visibility and Control of Financial Performance Drives Growth in Transportation Management Systems Market
Dedham, Massachusetts; September 6, 2005: The Transportation Management Systems (TMS) market grew to about $910 million in 2004 and is forecasted to exceed $950 million this year. The need for better visibility and control of financial performance is one of the factors contributing to growth.
 

According to Adrian Gonzalez, Director of ARC’s Logistics Executive Council and author of the new study, Transportation Management Systems Worldwide Outlook, “Chief Financial Officers (CFOs) are becoming better educated about the role and impact of logistics on financial performance, driven in part by the need to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOA). Many companies, however, do not have a clear and accurate understanding of their transportation costs. They’re often bundled together with other costs and reported at an aggregated level, thus preventing companies from allocating transportation costs to specific products, customers, or business units.”

 
ARC is forecasting the market to reach $1.2 billion by 2009, representing a Cumulative Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 6.4 percent. (Select the subject below to read articles on how you can do your part help protect our environment)

Shippers identify 'must haves' on their wish list
David Hannon, Managing Editor -- 12/8/2005


Logistics organizations, like so many others, are being asked to do more with less in today's business environment and leveraging transportation management systems (TMS) is becoming a deciding factor between who sinks and who swims in today's era of constrained capacity. But TMS is a broad umbrella and the most savvy logistics organizations today are optimizing the pieces beneath that umbrella that will produce the most benefit for their individual organization.

As the goals and priorities of a logistics organization (based on market trends and constraints) change, so do the priorities for functionality and TMS tools. What used to be the "killer app" for a shipper five years ago, may not be the magic bullet today. Setting goals and selecting technology based on those goals is the winning formula.
