Union Pacific Railroad
Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) is one of America's leading transportation companies. The railroad links 23 states in the western two-thirds of the country and serves the fastest-growing U.S. population centers. UPRR's diversified business mix includes agricultural, automotive, chemical, energy and industrial products, plus intermodal transportation. The railroad offers long-haul routes from all major West Coast and Gulf Coast ports to eastern gateways. UPRR also connects with Canada's rail systems and is the only railroad serving all six major gateways to Mexico, making it one of North America's premier rail franchises.

One of UPRR's primary lines of business is transporting vehicles across its rail network. UPRR came to BHMI with a need to track the status of these shipments from the time they leave assembly plants to the time they arrive at automobile dealerships. UPRR required a solution that could track these shipments from anywhere, at any given time. UPRR receives electronic shipping information from many different carriers and in many different formats. The railroad asked BHMI to analyze the situation and create an end-to-end tracking solution that would be easily accessible to the company and its customers.
BHMI is a bulldog organization. They excel at developing and implementing mission-critical applications. No challenge is too great and their timeliness is excellent.


BHMI proposed a comprehensive software solution to seamlessly handle all incoming and outgoing shipping message formats. Furthermore, BHMI offered a solution that would make detailed tracking information available to all parties who were involved in the shipping process – beginning at the automobile manufacturer and ending at the trucking contractor who delivered vehicles to a dealership.

Since there were going to be many different groups using this application, BHMI created a password-secure web-based interface. This allows easy browser access to the application for all user groups.

This application currently tracks millions of vehicle shipments per year, and it has dramatically enhanced the level of information available to UPRR and its customers.
