(EMAILWIRE.COM, June 16, 2004 ) Huntington Beach, California -- Freightgate, Inc., a leading provider of Internet applications for the freight and logistics industry, has released an upgrade of I-Trek!(R), its visibility and collaboration solution, to incorporate "FUZZY" search capabilities. FUZZY searching allows end-users to locate movements, even if the criteria used in the search are misspelled or only partial information is entered.

Previously, if a customer was searching for a bill of lading, purchase order number or master bill number, they would have to enter the criteria in an exact fashion, including punctuation, to obtain a match. By incorporating FUZZY functionality into I-Trek!(R), customers can quickly and accurately obtain this information without the need for as much precision on their part.

Mark Arnold, Freightgate's Director of Technology states, "we are very excited about the new FUZZY search functionality as it marks yet another great example of engineering making a significant difference in the value gained by the user, ultimately making process more efficient."

I-Trek!(R) is a powerful in-transit inventory and freight movement visibility solution that is designed to give you a competitive edge. Enabling collaboration between customers, staff, agents and vendors by sharing vital shipment information with all involved parties, I-Trek!(R) provides executable information by correlating disjointed data, allowing all parties to view, track and update the status of a shipment by multiple parameters including Billing Reference, Shipper Reference, Consignee Reference, PO Numbers, Part Number, Date Range and much more.
With this real-time information, customers can be assured of on time delivery, or of alert notices requiring exception handling or contingency planning to meet specific needs.
