With an expanding variety of enterprise and logistics IT systems and exponential growth in data volume, companies are challenged to synchronize data and sift through the bits and bytes to get the information that is important for their business operation.

Order Management System
Handhelds
Using mobile devices in the field ensures collection and access to the right information at each critical juncture of your transportation network. In real time, Cardinal’s driver handheld unit captures unique and customized delivery data to feed back into other business systems. E-forms, scanning, image and signature capture increase productivity and provide proof of successful loading and delivery. The handheld device looks to our platform of specialized logistics systems and middleware for operating instructions by customer and location.
Middleware
Cardinal’s middleware is where the magic really happens. It ensures information needed for efficient transportation and logistics is collected, manipulated, tracked, and transmitted between the order management system and in-field devices to meet service goals. It provides a common language using customized integration layers across disparate systems.
