VeriShip and Sifted Merge to Offer Predictive Analytics Platform for Logistics

November 18, 2020
SupplyChainBrain

VeriShip, a shipping expense optimization platform, recently announced a merger with Sifted, provider of a data science-driven predictive logistics platform. The merger joins two corporations to create a transformational cloud-based analytics engine for logistics. The combined company serves thousands of shippers across all sizes and complexities.

VeriShip and Sifted bring together a large, independent shipping expense database and the industry’s first cloud native, automated simulation and optimization platform. The new platform reduces transportation expenses for shippers while optimizing for delivery times and customer experience. The combined company is backed by global growth equity investor Summit Partners, which invested in VeriShip in 2018.

The combination creates a new model for managing transportation spend that brings together the power of self-service technology and transportation data science to help shippers navigate an increasingly complex shipping environment fueled by dramatic e-commerce growth. The companies will merge capabilities under the Sifted brand, and all clients will migrate to the new platform and will gain immediate access to 360-degree analytics of their data.

“For most businesses today, especially those in e-commerce, it is impossible to make data-driven decisions. Shippers are constantly blindsided by carrier changes, and they’re expected to fulfill shipments on time, implement new systems, manage inventory problems, and improve efficiencies, all while keeping costs in check. Now, with the combined power of VeriShip’s data set and Sifted’s predictive modeling capabilities, our platform will prescribe actions and prevent unnecessary spending before it ever happens,” said Shawn McCarrick, CEO of  VeriShip.

Shawn McCarrick will lead the company as CEO. Sifted’s three co-founders, Adam Moulding, Mark Chamberlain and Caleb Nelson, will serve as Chief Operating Officer, Chief Technology Officer and Chief Revenue Officer, respectively. VeriShip’s George Meier will jointly lead sales as Chief Business Development Officer alongside Nelson.  All other existing business leaders in both organizations remain and will continue serving in critical roles.

“The Sifted platform enables shippers to move away from educated guessing to decisions based on data science and provides highly accurate predictions using software for optimization and modeling,” said Adam Moulding, the new entity’s Chief Operating Officer. “We are giving shippers the clarity, control and freedom they need to forecast and proactively manage shipping costs.”
