The logistics industry is collaborative by nature, and project44 regularly embraces partnerships to create and improve data-driven solutions for their customers. Over the past few years, Google Cloud has become one of the company’s most impactful partners.

Project44 is well known for its impressive breadth — and depth — of visibility solutions. Google Cloud is known for providing an open cloud and next-generation AI tools that enable innovators across a wide range of industries to develop cutting edge solutions. Together, the organizations have been able to provide logistics companies with an integrated data source, encompassing shipment details, weather forecasts and real-time mapping insights.

Project44 first teamed with Google Cloud in 2020, united by a shared vision: optimizing supply chain visibility. 

Recently, Google Cloud launched its Industry Value Networks (IVN) initiative to increase collaboration efforts between itself and its partners.

The IVN initiative is initially focusing on key industries, including supply chain. Google Cloud’s ongoing partnership with project44 will expand and will be able to bring new innovative IVN solutions to market to serve our nuptial customers. 

According to a recent Google Cloud blog post, “Accenture and Google Cloud are working with project44 and NGIS to target multiple use cases such as increasing first-mile sustainable sourcing validation of commodity suppliers and bringing real-time transportation intelligence for supply chain resilience.”

Project44’s relationship with Google Cloud  is expected to continue providing supply chain customers with new levels of visibility and actionable insights through the combination of project44’s data and Google Cloud’s processing capabilities.

“What really excites me about the partnership is the fact that so many customers are trying to figure out what would happen to their supply chain if a certain scenario happened. And through this partnership, we’re able to model their supply chains and then you’re able to use the data that project44 brings to be able to do predictive modeling,” said Laurie Diekman, regional vice president of sales at project44. Last month, project44 was awarded the 2023 Google Cloud Industry Solution Technology Partner of the Year Award for Supply Chain & Logistics. The company earned this recognition for practicing a commitment to innovation and service while working to build a more connected and resilient supply chain.

Ultimately, the combined efforts of project44 and Google Cloud are creating the supply chain of the future.
