DHL said the alliance was formed to provide integrated, time-critical logistics solutions for a growing number of high-tech customers. EXE's system will allow DHL to have real-time tracking and tracing options worldwide via the Internet via a single information technology platform.
Dallas-based EXE added that its system would run multiple warehouse management systems over a single Oracle database using the Java2E Internet language. The system will officially go on line in the second quarter of this year.
