FourKites Named a Leader in 2022 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Real-time Transportation Visibility Solutions

FourKites scores highest in 3 out of 5 Use Cases in the Companion 2022 Gartner® Critical Capabilities for Real-Time Transportation Visibility Platforms report

CHICAGO, June 01, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — FourKites®, the world’s leading real-time supply chain visibility platform, today announced that, for the second consecutive year, the company has been named a Leader in the 2022 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Real-Time Transportation Visibility Platforms* (RTTVPs). Out of 11 vendors evaluated in this report, FourKites is the only company positioned in the Leaders quadrant with the furthest Completeness of Vision.

In addition, FourKites scored the highest for Fortune 500 businesses with complex needs. According to the 2022 Gartner® Critical Capabilities for Real-Time Transportation Visibility Platforms, which “provides deeper insight into providers’ product and service offerings by extending the Magic Quadrant analysis”, FourKites ranked #1 in three of the five most advanced Use Cases.**

FourKites, the largest global visibility solution, tracks 2.5 million shipments per day across all modes and connects the global supply chains of 50% of the Fortune 500, including customers such as Cardinal Health, Bayer, Henkel, Dow, AB InBev, Cargill, Henkel, Coca-Cola, Constellation Brands, 3M, RHI Magnesita and Eastman. Over the last 12 months, FourKites has achieved over 40% YoY growth in global customers, nearly 80% growth in total shipments and 78% growth in connected facilities, the latter of which now total over 2.3 million individual facilities around the world.

“The new Gartner reports are clear: Real-time visibility is a must-have technology for any supply chain,” said Mathew Elenjickal, founder and CEO of FourKites. “FourKites is unwaveringly focused on developing solutions that specifically target our customers’ biggest pain points and add real business value. We’re proud to be recognized by Gartner as the industry’s visionary and the solution of choice for large enterprises with complex needs.”

What Customers Are Saying on Gartner® Peer Insights™
FourKites’ unique customer-driven innovation model continues to yield breakthrough capabilities at a rapid clip, underpinning the company’s top-rated ability to serve the world’s largest enterprises.

“FourKites’ platform is complete and mature from an ocean, rail and truck tracking perspective but they offer so much more when you start to look at their Yard Management and Appointment Scheduling tools. Their onboarding and customer success teams are professional and helpful. They are our partners in this ongoing journey.”Supply Chain Professional, Retail

“[The things we like most about FourKites are:] 1. Ease of use and reporting functions that users can tailor to their needs. 2. Visibility platform that allows supply chain personnel to make decisions quickly to service our customers. 3. Product has been so successful here in the US that we are looking to expand to our international affiliates and offices.”Director, Transportation & Logistics

“The Platform is exceptional in the volume of detailed information provided. The FourKites team was very detailed in their explanation of the system and the training they provided. The level of support from FourKites is outstanding. The continued assistance/follow-up from them has been out of the ordinary. The system continues to offer additional data to improve Ventura’s service to the customer.”Carrier Capacity & Development Manager, Manufacturing

“Our implementation of FourKites was completed in less time than anticipated. Overall, the project was handled very well by the various teams and the FourKites team was probably the best implementation team I have worked with in a project of this scope and size.”Supply Chain Professional

“FourKites has been a great company to partner with. They have a strong customer service focus and tend to take product feedback through development to production surprisingly quickly. Their core tracking platform, while sophisticated, is remarkably intuitive and they seem to have an eye for end user experience in everything they produce.” Transportation Sr. Manager, Manufacturing

FourKites Continues to Drive Unmatched Innovation
Amid another year of constant supply chain disruption, FourKites doubled-down on its customer-driven innovation model, as it welcomed nearly 80 customers to its new Innovation Partner Program. In 2021 alone, FourKites delivered more than 185 new products and features, nearly 40% of which were driven by Innovation Partners. Some of the company’s more recent innovations include:

  • Dynamic ETA® for Ocean, which provides shippers, carriers and 3PLs with the market’s most accurate ETAs — 20% to 40% more accurate than carrier-generated figures — for ocean shipments across more than 270 lanes and 120 carriers worldwide.
  • Dynamic ETA® for Air, which enables real-time visibility into 100% of air freight, with extremely accurate predictive ETAs.
  • A major upgrade to Dynamic Yard®, which enables highly accurate and granular data down to the level of individual SKUs. Customers are seeing up to 30% improvement in workforce efficiency, 40% better dock throughput, and 40% to 80% reduction in detention costs.
  • Universal Appointment Manager rollout in Europe and APAC, which helps warehouses, distribution centers and manufacturing facilities collaborate efficiently on pickup and receiving time slots to eliminate excess dwell time on site, reduce detention fees and cut carbon emissions.
  • Order Intelligence Hub, which integrates order data, multi-modal load information, yard shipments, inventory visibility and other critical third-party systems to provide a new single-pane-of-glass view of the entire lifecycle of every order.
  • A Net Zero initiative to help the world’s leading companies achieve their organizational goals to reduce supply chain emissions.
  • An award of U.S. Patent No. 11,017,347 for Smart Forecasted Arrival, which provides companies with highly frequent and accurate ETAs for freight in transit, even when that truck lacks any technology to transmit location data.

In addition, last year FourKites was the sole supply chain company named an AI Trailblazer by Everest Group; was one of only four Transportation and Logistics companies to receive Inc.’s Best in Business Award; was one of The Software Report’s Top 100 Software Companies of 2021; and was named a Top Green Provider by Food Logistics.

Vytelle Announces the 2022 Top 150 Proven Bulls

KANSAS CITY, Missouri, June 01, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Vytelle announces the release of the Top 150 Proven Bulls. Together, with more than 30 of their network partners, Vytelle is sharing high accuracy bulls that have risen to the top of more than 94,000 animals of 25 different breeds and more than 289,000 RFI EPDs.

“Cattle producers need to be able to replicate the right genetics now,” said Kerryann Kocher, Chief Executive Officer for Vytelle. “Through Vytelle’s integrated technology platform, the reality of making reliable data-driven decisions is now. Vytelle and our network partners, are publishing this list of feed efficient bulls to assist cattle producers globally in driving a more accurate mating selection decision.”

Bulls appearing within the pages of the Top 150 Proven Bulls list must meet the following criteria:

  • A minimum of a three-generation pedigree
  • Residual Feed Intake (RFI) EPD accuracy of 0.6 or higher
  • Animal or progeny were tested on a Vytelle SENSE system

Vytelle curates the world’s largest multi-breed database. Each phenotyped animal strengthens the database providing producers insight to make profit-bearing decisions regarding selection for feed efficiency and performance.

“The selection possibilities for breeders across the globe are endless,” commented Lisa Rumsfeld, Vice President of International Commercial Operation for Vytelle. “As part of a balanced program, selecting cattle for feed efficiency using residual feed intake, can directly impact the bottom line as 70 percent of a beef producer’s total cost is feed. Our partners are enjoying a growing interest in their programs, identifying marketing premiums associated with feed efficiency and methane emissions reduction claims.”

Phenotypic data captured through the Vytelle SENSE system measures both individual animal feed intake and weight in parallel while cattle remain in their pens. The Feed Intake Nodes measure feed disappearance every second an animal is feeding, each time an animal feeds, to a 10-gram resolution. The In-Pen Weighing Positions measure individual animal partial body weight and growth. It weighs every second an animal is standing at the water trough, which can equate up to 450 weights a day.

FDA Approves Genio® 2.1 For Use in DREAM U.S. IDE Pivotal Study

FDA Approves Genio® 2.1 For Use in DREAM U.S. IDE Pivotal Study 

New smartphone application, upgraded activation chip, improved user interface, and stimulation amplitude trimming enhance patient experience and comfort

Mont-Saint-Guibert, Belgium – June 1, 2022, 10:30pm CET / 4:30pm ET – Nyxoah SA (Euronext Brussels/Nasdaq: NYXH)(“Nyxoah” or the “Company”), a medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative solutions to treat Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the use of Nyxoah’s next generation Genio® 2.1 system for use in the Company’s DREAM U.S. IDE pivotal study. Genio® 2.1’s upgrades are entirely related to the external components of the Genio® system, as the implantable stimulator remains unchanged.

Genio® 2.1 further demonstrates Nyxoah’s patient-centric approach to addressing the needs of those suffering from moderate-to-severe OSA. The system features updates to the Genio® activation chip and a new smartphone application to enable daily reporting of therapy usage, which will support therapy acclimation and long-term compliance. Additional features of Genio® 2.1 include an improved user interface and the ability for clinicians to make more incremental stimulation adjustments. This is particularly meaningful for patients who are more sensitive to neurostimulation, as with Genio® 2.1 physicians can fine-tune stimulation amplitude to determine the optimal level of comfort for patients without compromising therapy efficacy.

“Genio® 2.1’s features, along with existing full-body 3.0T MRI compatibility, illustrate Nyxoah’s patient-first mission in OSA product development,” commented Olivier Taelman, Nyxoah’s Chief Executive Officer. “The updated activation chip and new smartphone app, combined with our upgraded user interface and increased stimulation resolution, represent key next steps in optimizing patient outcomes. We are excited to make these important new features available to patients in our DREAM trial.”

About Nyxoah
Nyxoah is a medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative solutions to treat Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). Nyxoah’s lead solution is the Genio® system, a patient-centered, leadless and battery-free hypoglossal neurostimulation therapy for OSA, the world’s most common sleep disordered breathing condition that is associated with increased mortality risk and cardiovascular comorbidities. Nyxoah is driven by the vision that OSA patients should enjoy restful nights and feel enabled to live their life to its fullest.

Following the successful completion of the BLAST OSA study, the Genio® system received its European CE Mark in 2019. Nyxoah completed two successful IPOs: on Euronext Brussels in September 2020 and NASDAQ in July 2021. Following the positive outcomes of the BETTER SLEEP study, Nyxoah received CE mark approval for the expansion of its therapeutic indications to Complete Concentric Collapse (CCC) patients, currently contraindicated in competitors’ therapy. Additionally, the Company is currently conducting the DREAM IDE pivotal study for FDA and US commercialization approval.

JERSEY CITY, N.J., June 01, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Verisk (Nasdaq: VRSK), a leading global data analytics provider, today announced that Maroun Mourad will succeed Rich Della Rocca as President, Claims Solutions, upon his retirement, effective July 1, 2022.

In addition, the innovation of Verisk’s commercial underwriting team has driven greater customer results under his leadership.

“I couldn’t be more excited to lead our claims organization into the future, building on a rock-solid foundation across our teams, businesses and geographies,” Mourad said. “The claims function is the ultimate customer-facing unit for any insurer. I look forward to exploring ways to further support our customers. One way we’ll do this is by increasing our focus on holistic solutions across process automation, technology and analytics to support this most important function.”

Della Rocca is retiring from Verisk after 27 years with the company, having served the past two as president of claims.

“Rich helped to build an integrated and increasingly global claims business with solutions for claims fraud detection, property estimating, auto and casualty solutions – with proprietary data and innovative technologies as the foundation,” Anquillare said. “We are grateful for his many contributions and leadership over the years, and we wish him all the best in this next exciting chapter of his life.”

Students in Loei province told compliance with hairstyle regulation not a penalty

Students at a junior high school in Thailand’s north-eastern province of Loei, where a teacher was attacked by a student fearing that he might have his hair forcibly cut, were told by the school’s management today (Thursday) that a haircut is not a punishment, but to ensure that their hairstyle is in line with the regulation.

The students were also told that the teacher is still recuperating, but he will not be pressing charges against his attacker, a grade 9 student, who allegedly punched him as he believed that he was next to have his hair cut.

A school administrator said that, after the incident, the student was told to take a break, so that his parents could take care of him. He said both the student and his parents will be invited to the school next week for a discussion.

The provincial primary education committee, schools and parent representatives will meet next Saturday to discuss the incident and to consider whether the hairstyle regulation should reviewed, subject to the consent of the committee.

Doo Tha Htoo District Short Update: SAC troops arbitrarily detain seven villagers, March 2022

On March 29th and 31st 2022, Karen National Liberation Army (KNLA)[2] and People’s Defence Force (PDF)[3] fighters ambushed State Administration Council (SAC)[4] troops from an unidentified artillery unit near H— pond, L— village, Sway Yaw Pya village tract[5], Tha Htoo (Thaton) Township. On April 1st 2022, at about 8:00 am, SAC troops in two military trucks arrived at the scene, set up hidden observation posts, and also patrolled the vicinity of L— village.

Saw G—, a 22-year-old villager from A— village, Shwe Yaw Pya village tract, was in a nearby field with his parents, his cousin, and two of his friends. A villager from L— village phoned his mother and informed her that the SAC troops were heading their way. However, the soldiers surrounded them before they could leave. The SAC soldiers asked them about the KNLA and PDF ambushes. They told the villagers that they must know the people who attacked them, since they live in this area. They also accused them of sheltering and helping PDF fighters in the village.

The SAC troops briefly detained the villagers and made them lay on the ground, facedown. When Saw G— told them that he did not know anything about [the ambushes], the SAC battalion commander hit his head three times with the grip of his pistol, causing him a minor injury. The SAC troops also threatened to burn down A— village if the PDF attacks them again. There were about 12 to 13 SAC soldiers at the scene, and even more in the areas surrounding the field.

The SAC soldiers eventually arrested and took away Saw G—’s cousin and his friend. They then resumed patrolling the area, arresting four other villagers they found fishing at H—pond, as well as another villager named Saw O— [who was reportedly drunk at the time, and is possibly suffering from mental health issues]. Saw G—’s cousin lives in T— village, and the other arrested villagers live in A— village, Shwe Yaw Pya village tract, K—village, Moe Kaung village tract, and I— village, Don Won village tract. The SAC troops took the seven villagers away [on accusations of supporting the PDF], and confiscated three of their motorcycles.

The arrested villagers were:

Saw N— (41 years old), from I— village, Don Won village tract

Saw E— (30 years old), from T— village, Shwe Yaw Pya village tract [Saw G—‘s cousin]

Saw N— (28 years old), from A— village, Shwe Yaw Pya village tract

Saw B— (22 years old), from K— village, Moe Kaung village tract

Saw Y— (23 years old), from A— village, Shwe Yaw Pya village tract

Saw P— (33 years old), from A— village, Shwe Yaw Pya village tract

Saw O— (age unknown), from A— village, Shwe Yaw Pya village tract

When Saw G— arrived at his village with his parents, he informed the village tract administrator about the incident and told him that the SAC soldiers had asked for a two million kyats ransom per detained villager. However, the SAC troops did not disclose where the villagers would be taken. Family members went looking for their arrested relatives at Artillery Unit #9’s camp, but could not find them there. They suspected that the villagers might have been taken to Artillery Unit #3. The location of the arrested civilians remained unknown [presumably for several hours], and [the] soldiers [who arrested the villagers] did not communicate further with the detainees’ family members.

Later that day, the family members learned that the villagers had been arrested by the SAC artillery unit which is based at Wa Pa (Win Pa) army camp, Kyeik Kaw in Tha Htoo Town. On April 5th 2022, six of the arrested villagers were released with the help of a local leader [who paid an unknown amount to the SAC soldiers]. Only Saw O— remained in custody because no one dared to ask for his release. Before they were freed, the SAC troops warned that they did not want to see the six villagers in their villages anymore, saying that they would kill them if they did. The threat prompted the released villagers to flee to Thailand out of fear. Saw O— was eventually released from custody in the first week of May 2022. The SAC soldiers said that he was no longer of use to them and so released him.

Bangkok Governor hopes to reduce BTS fares, meet anti-corruption watchdog

Newly elected Bangkok Governor Chadchart Sittipunt said he is having a busy day today (Wednesday), a day after he assumed office, as he met with representatives of Krungthep Thanakom, a public company which is over 99% owned by the city administration as its investment arm and which is allocated a large budget each year.

Chadchart is also scheduled to meet with executives of the Anti-Corruption Organisation of Thailand, a non-profit think tank.

The discussion today focuses on the Green Line sky-train project, for which the previous administration wanted to extend the operating concession, due to expire in 2029, by another 30 years, and the fare of 65 baht, which Chadchart and his team hope to reduce. They are also discussing the BRT bus service, which is currently losing about 120 million baht a year, the burying of overhead cables, which are under the supervision of Krungthep Thanakom.

The extension of the sky-train concession contract and the maximum train fare have come under heavy criticism, especially from the candidates in the recent Bangkok gubernatorial election.

Chadchart said, after the meeting, that details can be decided upon and announced in a month’s time, adding that it is not difficult for him to tackle unresolved mega projects, such as the Green Line system, because he is a newcomer and has no attachment to the key stakeholders.

While he assured that all parties in the projects will be treated fairly, public interest will come first, noting that there is no need to rush to extend the Green Line concession contract now, as there is plenty of time to consider the project.

The governor admitted that more than 5,000 complaints have been sent to his webpage, covering a wide range of problems from various groups of people, such as vendors and the disabled.

He said that the process for receiving complaints will be streamlined, to make it easier.

Chadchart won a landslide in the first Bangkok gubernatorial election in nine years on May 22. The official results were announced on Tuesday.

Five-century-old gold crown of a Buddha statue returned to Thailand from US

Thailand has recently received an antique gold crown, part of a Buddha statue believed to be about 500 years old, from the United States, with the help of the Department of Homeland Security, according to Culture Minister Itthiphol Kunplome.

The crown was made of 95% pure gold in the Lanna art form to decorate a stone-sculpted Buddha statue, a popular practice during the period as a religious offering. The crown itself weighs about 42.6g.

The antique crown is now being kept at the National Museum in Bangkok by the Fine Arts Department for study prior to being exhibited in the future, said the minister.

He went on to say that officials from the US Homeland Security Department have been investigating some bronze sculptures, believed to originate from the Prakon Chai archaeological site in Thailand’s north-eastern province of Buri Ram, which are currently on display at the Denver Art Museum, with a possibility that the sculptures may be returned to Thailand.

The minister said that he would prefer the US Department of Homeland Security to settle all the legal matters before the antique sculptures are sent back to Thailand.

Itthiphol hailed the achievements of a committee, set up by the government about five years ago to track artefacts which had been smuggled out of Thailand and have them returned, and the cooperation of the US Department of Homeland Security in the return to Thailand of such items, including the two Khmer lintels from the Asian Art Museum in the US last year.

The two Khmer lintels returned from the US are to be put on display at the at the information centres of Prasat Sadok Kok Thom historical park in Sa Kaeo province and at the Phnom Rung historical park in Buri Ram province.

Up to 164 items of ancient pottery returned are currently being exhibited at the National Museum.
