Formation of the company was in response to the need for quality post-audit services, according to Sandra Dearden, president and chief executive officer of Highroad. She said Highroad's consultants have identified overcharges running into the millions of dollars over the last three years. Michael Romanow, currently Highroad's manager of strategic analysis, has been named director of client services for Highroad as well as for the new subsidiary. He will direct activities related to the production of data for Highroad's consulting projects, and be responsible for supervising audits. Highroad Consulting, Ltd. is a full-service transportation and logistics consulting firm, specializing in strategies that address surface-transportation costs. The firm's analytical tools include Viewpoint, for benchmarking freight rates, and Insight: RailEdition, for calculating railroad operating costs.
