CSX adopts ESC web system for inbound vehicle distribution
CSX Technology, a subsidiary of CSX Corp., will implement at 20 inbound vehicle distribution centers within its network a web-based automobile handling system designed by Embarcadero Systems Corp.
The VinTelligentTM system is a web-based application that optimizes automobile handling at all points along the supply chain and provides status reports on vehicle movements.
“Increasingly, auto manufacturers are requiring carriers to provide near real-time supply chain integration and visibility,” a spokesman for Embarcadero Systems said.
CSX Transportation moves over six million vehicles a year through its network.
