Differentiates Envase’s Intermodal TMS with the Only Rate Management Solution Tailored to Intermodal Transportation

DOVER, N.H., Feb. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Envase Technologies (“Envase”), a mission-critical software platform for the intermodal supply chain, announced today the acquisition of DrayMaster Enterprise (“DrayMaster”), a software company with two core products: (i) DrayMaster, a rate management system (RMS) for intermodal carriers and freight forwarders, and (ii) Dray360, a software module that automates drayage carrier order entry and processing through robust rule engine algorithms.
