Evolved Transportation
ManagementTM
Evolved Transportation Management is both a vision and
a philosophy which promises that at Echo we will simplify
the critical tasks involved in transportation management
so that Echo clients can focus on what they do best.
In 2005, Echo began with one simple objective-to take
the “complicated” out of transportation management.
Simplifying “complicated” activities such as interacting
with dozens of carriers in multiple modes, covering
domestic and global moves, figuring out the right
technology to integrate among clients, carriers and
customers.
Streamlining “complicated” activities such as conducting
RFP and sourcing operations, auditing freight bills and
issuing payment.
Eliminating the “complicated” activities involved in
setting up systems to monitor service and recover from
service failures, not to mention claims processing and
management.
