Northland Services selects Horizon Services for system platform
Seattle-based Northland Services Inc., a provider of contract barge transportation services between its home Washington state port and Alaska and Hawaii, has contracted with Horizon Services Group to replace its legacy systems and to provide a new equipment management system.
Horizon Services is the technology research and development subsidiary of U.S. Jones Act carrier Horizon Lines.
The services will enable Northland to integrate core operations systems for booking, fleet management, vessel scheduling, stowage, quoting, billing, rating, proof of delivery and documentation, Horizon Services said.
“Horizon Services Group offers the combination of deep industry experience, Alaska knowledge and advanced technology expertise to assist us in migrating to a new systems platform that will ultimately allow us to improve operational efficiency and service to our customers,” said Shawn Bohnert, Northland’s executive vice president.
