Global Link Logistics and The Hipage Company Select NVOCC Tariff Publisher

New Customer Sign-ups Signal Growing Trend and Benefit of Managing Ocean Rate Tariffs In-house with Management Dynamics

EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ, August 17, 2004, Management Dynamics, Inc., a leader in tariff and contract management solutions for the ocean transportation industry, today announced that Global Link Logistics, and The Hipage Company have each selected NVOCC Tariff Publisher, an integrated Rate Explorer module, to manage their ocean rate tariffs. The new customer wins signals the growing trend of managing ocean rate tariffs in-house to simplify operational processes and maintain compliance at a much lower cost than using a third-party publisher.

"Tariff Publisher allows us to integrate tariff maintenance with our internal operations and take control of the tariff filing process", said Gary Meyer, chief operating officer of Global Link Logistics. "We were up and running in no time at all."

NVOCC Tariff Publisher manages all aspects of a rate tariff, including adding rates, updating rates and searching for rates. Using a maintenance process that is as easy to administer as sending an email, NVOCCs realize faster updates and more control over their rate tariff than using a third-party service. Management Dynamics also provides dedicated account managers that are ready to assist with any regulatory or publishing questions. NVOCC Tariff Publisher is delivered "on-demand", with secure access over the Internet from any office location.

"The effort is the same as working with a third party publisher," said Bill Davenport, corporate export manager for The Hipage Company. "We had been using a third-party tariff publishing service for years but discovered that with the same level of effort we could have better control, improve our accuracy, and reduce our costs."

"We welcome our latest subscribers for NVOCC Tariff Publisher," said Management Dynamics president and chief operating officer John Preuninger. "These new sign-ups clearly illustrate how NVOCCs are maintaining compliance with FMC regulations and saving money and time by managing their tariff in-house."
