Live demo preview: The latest, greatest tech at bargain rates — LeanTech

Service you expect, in an unexpected location

Lean Solutions at the Future of Supply Chain in Northwest Arkansas.

A major attraction of FreightWaves’ The Future of Supply Chain live event in Northwest Arkansas on May 9-10 will be the seven-minute live demos. Here’s a preview of one of those demos.

The latest and greatest software comes at a price. It can be quite costly to maintain cutting-edge technology. One option is nearshoring or outsourcing some of the development work, but with no guarantee of what the quality of work will be — or is that not the case anymore?

There have been hubs for developers, and software engineers pop up all around the world who, through a stable internet connection, can be a massive asset to any company’s infrastructure.
