Complete Innovations Inc. and Shipping Pal Announce
Strategic Parternship
12/13/2005
Toronto, ONT. – December 13, 2005 – Today,
Complete Innovations Inc. and Shipping Pal Corp., are pleased to announce
their collaboration to integrate the Courier Complete Web Component and
the Shipping Pal online logistics service, providing Courier Complete customers
with free integration into the Shipping Pal system.
Complete Innovations Inc., developers of Courier Complete, an easy-to-use,
Windows-based courier operations solution, are the industry leaders in logistics
management systems, providing mission critical solutions specifically designed
for the courier, messenger, expediting and distribution industries across
North America. Shipping Pal is an innovative online shipment ordering system
which allows users to instantly receive a selection of rates and delivery
times from a variety of service providers, and purchase these services online.
Shipping Pal is currently in Beta development, with an anticipated launch
date in Spring 2006.
“As online business transactions grow in popularity, so does the demand
for a greater range in delivery options,” says Hardin Jackson, President/CEO
of Shipping Pal Corp. “In addition to providing a greater range in
flexibility of services for our customers, we will be actively marketing
the benefits of the service providers involved – it’s a win-win
situation.”
Shipping Pal service providers use a simple XML protocol, integrated with
the Courier Complete online ordering system, to respond to requests for
quotes from Shipping Pal users. This allows them to reach a huge, untapped
market of customers who otherwise would be relying on the dominant larger
courier companies. The customer wins too, by having access to competitive
quotes and a greater range of services that are available from the larger
firms.
“Shipping Pal is a mass-marketing solution for all small and mid-sized
courier companies. It brings great value to Courier Complete customers giving
them access to new markets and business that they would not otherwise be
able to obtain. It allows them to compete on a level playing field with
market leaders such as UPS, Fed Ex and DHL,” says Tony Lourakis, President
and CEO of Complete Innovations Inc.
Participation in Shipping Pal is free for all shipping companies who use
Courier Complete, and can be configured in less than one business day. This
is a great opportunity for shipping companies to reach a mass market and
grow their business without cost or risk. Shipping Pal is a company’s
portal into the internet shipping market. Potential customers include:
• e-commerce websites
• online auctions
• shipping departments of mid-sized and large corporations
• anyone who wants to ship a package but doesn’t have an account
with a courier company
Shipping Pal users say: “Shipping Pal has streamlined my whole process
of shipping and receiving. I can track my shipments easily, and can deal
with multiple courier companies without having to chase down waybills and
details. And I don’t need a separate terminal for every courier company
I deal with – all those terminals and printers have been replaced
by a single internet connection.” (Samantha Angel, Manager, SkyeLiving
