Accelerate Integrations and Strategic Implementations in North America
MPO has announced a new partnership with Metafora (formerly CarrierDirect).
This partnership will enable MPO customers, shippers, and logistics service providers, to gain greater visibility and control of their supply chain at lower costs and quicker time to value.
“I’m excited about this opportunity to empower MPO customers through this partnership with Metafora,” says Martin Verwijmeren, CEO and MPO Co-Founder.
“Providing seamless integration with the world’s largest carrier network will enable greater flexibility while lowering costs.”
The selection of Socket, Metafora’s integration solution, enables MPO’s technology to easily integrate with leading supply chain systems to create the control tower solution shippers and 3PLs are searching for.
As the preferred North American implementation partner of MPO products, Metafora will own the end-to-end rollout of MPO’s software. From mapping endpoints to the precision-based execution of change management, Metafora’s best-in-class consulting team will support so customers have a plug & play experience.
“MPO is a perfect choice for our first formal Socket Integration Platform partnership. Martin and team have built a world-class Global Transportation Management System and Supply Chain Control Tower platform, and we're thrilled to be tasked with supporting the onboarding of their new customers,” says Metafora’s CEO, Peter Rentschler.
“Our Socket product will allow faster time to value for MPO's customers. We're excited to be part of the team helping them change the game in North American supply chain orchestration.”
The benefits of this new partnership include:
- Access to Metafora, a Leader in Supply Chain Management & Consulting: MPO customers will benefit from expanded capabilities, leveraging Metafora’s supply chain management expertise and resources during the MPO platform implementation.
- Integration Access to a Vast Global Carrier Network: Metafora’s Socket Technology enables seamless integration and onboarding of a network of 200,000+ carriers directly into the MPO platform.
- Quick-Time-to-Value and Lowest Cost of Ownership: MPO customers can now implement quicker and at a lower cost through an automated process for carrier integration, providing greater access and affordability to the SMB market.
