Density Analytics (FIDA) tech- nology is designed to maximize shipping savings while elimi- nating the "surprise" upcharges that can turn a $200 shipment into a $2000 shipment. "No other technology in to- day's market can analyze all the variables of a shipment and make a determination against any carrier rules," saidWagner. "Our newly-patented FIDA system not only does this, but it also provides additional sav- ings for our clients above and beyond the negotiated rate." According to Wagner, with FIDA and other elements of

TFM’s technology stack, clients can ship with confidence that the rate they see in the com- puter is the rate they are going to pay. "We successfully man- age our clients' expectations, visibility, and predictability in their supply chain costs. We save them time by eliminating the need to double-check costs, carriers and shipments. By empowering our customers to ship with less worry, we free them up to focus their time and energy on what they do best: make and build." Among Target Freight's many FIDA-fueled benefits:

• Target Freight will renego- tiate their customers' freight, save them substantial money on shipping, and also make sure their freight isn’t reclassed. • Target Freight can also save customers money on their small package shipments with their parcel division, which means any size shipment will see notable reductions in ship- ping costs. • Target Freight has access to carriers that aren’t consid- ered “common.” The company uses over 10,000 carriers to provide their customers with the very best rates and service

on Truckload shipping.

ESTERN PA — In the hyper-compet- itive construction

industry, even a small overhead reduction can mean the differ- ence between a winning and losing bid. But what happens when your reductions combine over time to help your firm save thousands of dollars each month, all while improving the speed, efficiency, and customer satisfaction that your brand is built on? Meet Mike Wagner , Ernst & Young 's 2017 Entrepreneur of the Year. His company, Target Freight, was named #71 on 2017's Inc. 5000 List of the fastest-growing privately- owned companies in the U.S. -- up 11 spots from their #82 ranking in 2016. How has Wagner created the kind of business growth that most startup "growth hackers" only dream of? By providing his customers with an unparalleled advantage. Target Freight's proprietary Freight Innovation SHEETZ: Details on South Fayette location . . . of Sheetz will catapult this intersection and assist in fur- ther developing Burns Scalo’s surrounding lots. The land across Bursca Drive to the south of the new Sheetz location, is an ideal lot for a stand-alone Pharmacy such as CVS, Walgreens or Rite Aid. Dirt will be moved down the slope with the de- molition of 3117 to flatten out both upper and lower lots. 3117 and 3101 Washington Pike hopes to be stand-alone restaurants, retail, or com- mercial locations. Jim Scalo said with excite- ment how, “The traffic and attention that an anchor like Sheetz will drive will be re- markable for Bursca Business Park and the surrounding township of South Fayette, which is another reason why it has been named Allegheny County’s next boom town.” n continued from page 6C 3109 Washington Pike rendering
