The Client

Alpharetta, Georgia-headquartered Integra Logistics, LLC is a provider of freight logistics for a wide range of customers including consumer-goods, forest products and agricultural-products companies. The company formed in 2003 with a small but dedicated staff of seven logistics professionals competing with existing trucking and intermodal companies like JB Hunt, Pacer Global Logistics and Hub Group.


The Challenge

In order to stay ahead of the curve, Integra Logistics created the industry's first fully comprehensive web-based intermodal and highway services performance system. Called Suplaris™, the software was originally developed by Integra Logistics employees with only a few having programming experience. As the company grew its employees and customers needed more out of Suplaris™. But without IT staff to modify the code or the budget to hire dedicated in-house programmers, Integra Logistics began looking for a competent and reliable software development firm to manage and overhaul its mission-critical application.

The Client

Located in Conway, Arkansas, the University of Central Arkansas (UCA) is the state’s second largest public university.


The Situation

University recruitment has changed dramatically since the advent of the Internet. Long gone are the days of direct mail marketing and traveling to area high schools to talk with juniors and seniors. Today, tech-savvy teens often decide what college they’ll attend long before setting foot on its campus. And helping them make one of the most important decisions of their lives are University Web sites. Not surprisingly, schools with highly attractive, interactive, user-friendly, information-rich Web sites consistently capture the attention—and ultimately the tuition dollars—of future students.


The Challenge

This simple realization was the driving force behind UCA’s decision to redesign its Web site, www.uca.edu, which was originally built around 2000. Results of a student opinion survey revealed that most students found the Web site “boring,” “hard to navigate,” and lacking the information they wanted. That was not the impression UCA officials wanted to make on potential students. So UCA issued an RFP and hired Softwyre to redesign its antiquated Web site.
