MGM Transport Introduces Improved E-Tracking Solution

Furniture World Magazine

MGM Transport Corp. announced a new online tracking feature called MGM E-Track. Designed by MGM Technology Services, E-Track allows businesses to receive daily emails on the status of shipments transported by MGM. This automatic information helps companies keep on top of priority shipments and provide more timely status information to their customers. The E-Track update feature is part of the latest Version 5 updates to the MGM Online Tracking System. Long regarded as the industry benchmark, it is a comprehensive solution that uses the latest technology to provide timely information to companies on the status of their deliveries. While this information is still available through a secure MGM website or by calling Customer Care directly for information, the new E-Track solution proactively emails tracking information. Additionally, Proof of Delivery and Bill of Lading reports are viewable on demand. MGM Transport is recognized as an industry leader in technology. They were the first to utilize web tracing, bar coding, and other innovative solutions. “Our mission is to provide our customers with the information and services they need to make their business run more smoothly”, stated Ben Keller, MGM’s Chief Information Officer. “We pioneered the MGM Online Tracking System and we are constantly seeking to improve the technology and reporting.” Keller and MGM are also highly involved in FIDX, the Furniture Industry Data Exchange, a neutral industry group promoting standards of data exchange and furthering the development of e-business standards. The MGM E-Track Update service is available to all MGM customers, in addition to 24/7 online tracking capabilities. Thanks to an unfailing commitment to reliability and innovation, MGM Transport Corp. (www.mgmtransport.com) has grown into a transportation leader in the home furnishings industry since its inception more than half a century ago. Over the years, the multimillion-dollar, family-owned and operated business has transformed from a traditional trucking company to an innovative, full-service transportation, warehousing and logistics partner for manufacturers and retailers, both domestic and import. The company was the first in the home furnishings industry to offer online tracking and bar coding.
