Four Soft Signs Deal with Alba Wheels
- Posted on 02 September 2010
Four Soft (4S) announces that it has won a deal from Alba Wheels Up International to implement its order management system 4S Visilog, global freight forwarding application 4S eTrans and global customs compliance solution 4S eCustoms across multiple locations in US and Hong Kong.
4S Visilog will be rolled out initially with integration to 4S eTrans at multiple locations of Alba. This contract has been executed through Four Soft USA, a subsidiary of Four Soft Limited, India.
4S eCustoms is the first integrated global solution for customs compliance integrating multiple country customs brokerage into one framework. It aims to bring productivity gains on a standardised platform. However regional players can still opt for only one module like US customs. With the addition of US imports 4S will be the largest licensed software provider for customs compliance with a significant percentage of world transactions being processed through 4S systems.
Salvatore Stile II, CEO & president, Alba, commented," We reviewed a number of software systems in the industry before we chose Four Soft. Four Soft solutions are definitely a great fit to our current and future demands as we plan for a dynamic and rapid growth in the freight forwarding and customs brokerage industry. We are also confident that Four Soft has right depth and mix of experience across the industry." He further added," We believe that these implementations will not only help us integrate our global business operations but also provide better visibility and enhanced services to our customers."
Rajshekhar Roy, CEO, Four Soft, said," We are greatly delighted and appreciate Alba making a decision to chose Four Soft. Our experience and success of delivering major projects in the US will not only ensure a smooth implementation for Alba, but also deliver rapid returns on their initial investment. Furthermore Four Soft's solutions will enable Alba to streamline communications with their trading partners, introducing significant resource efficiencies but more importantly, giving them greater visibility to their supply chain. We also have a strong customs framework for India, Canada and Europe. On completion of US Customs we will have potential coverage of 65 percent of the global trade."
