Raleigh, NC — May 19, 2009 — Pergo Inc., a producer of residential laminate flooring, has tapped Transite Technology to reduce the cost of its North American transportation and shipping, while streamlining its transportation management processes.

"Pergo is aggressive in implementing ways to reduce cost and strengthen organizational capabilities," said David Rawls, director of transportation at Pergo. "Transportation management is an area where smart application of the right technologies and services can yield quick results both in process efficiencies and expense reductions."

Transite said its My Freight Portal, Contract Manager, and additional products and services are designed to help companies obtain the least-cost methods and carriers while increasing a company's ability to manage its shipping logistics and offer better customer service through visibility of the entire shipping process.

"Transite is fundamental in Pergo's ability to have cost focus and visibility within the transportation component of its supply chain," said Geoff Comrie, CEO of Transite. "While companies typically look to lower the cost of their products by focusing on raw materials and product manufacturing processes, progressive companies like Pergo are now applying the same science and rigor when it comes to shipping and transportation."
