NextGen Supply Chain Interview: Kevin Zweier

Kevin Zweier manages the delivery of projects related to transportation procurement, fleet modeling and systems and operational assessments.

NextGen Supply Chain: When it comes to NextGen technologies, not everyone thinks of transportation management systems or TMS right away. After all, TMS has been around for 20 years.
