Logistics.com Inc. in Burlington, MA. published on October 4, 2001, the LEMA (Logistics Event Management Architecture) standard set, which enables carriers and freight forwarders to buy, sell, manage, and optimize ground, ocean, and air transportation services. The company developed LEMA as an open, standards-based user architecture to promote a more seamless flow of supply chain information among the logistics community and industry exchange participants, such as IT and service providers.
LEMA provides three primary benefits: enterprise application integration with external systems, free flow of information, and reduction of the cycle time for processing logistics process information, such as concurrent processing of freight tender and shipment acceptance.
LEMA logistics standards are available to Logistics.com customers and other enterprises intending to benefit from an open, standardized business platform. The company is currently seeking support from standardization organizations to increase the user base for its standards.
