REDLANDS, Calif., April 4, 2013 — (PRNewswire) —  Esri announces that PITT OHIO, a transportation solutions provider headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, has licensed Esri's ArcGIS for Transportation Analytics. The solution is powered by the ArcGIS platform and helps staff use fleet location information to provide customers with high-quality service. PITT OHIO can now more proactively plan its business by creating routes, managing complex schedules, and monitoring progress throughout the day.

"Our company has grown in the last three decades from a leader in less-than-truckload to a complete transportation solutions provider," said Scott Sullivan, CIO/CFO for PITT OHIO. "We needed to find a solution that helps us continue to drive optimization into our core processes. Esri's experience, industry leadership, and relationships with others in our industry were just what we were looking for in a solution partner."
