As Logistics Management reported in February and March, the supply chain management software and technology investment figures that trickled in at the end of 2008 showed us that while times were tough a small percentage of savvy shippers continued to invest in new implementations and upgrades.

That shouldn't really surprise anyone considering the challenging transportation market (fuel costs) over the past year, and the fact that increased trade regulations are putting even more pressure on global shippers for information.

For the vast majority of shippers who told us that their hands have been tied in terms of software/technology spending, this webcast may offer you some shelter from the storm.

Logistics Management has gathered a panel of four leading supply chain management technology analysts to share their insight to help shippers better harness existing systems or build a stronger case for making the much needed upgrade.
