Allied Automotive Group Reaches 100th Day in Production With Transflo.com, An Online Document Management Solution Service Provided By Pegasus TransTech

    TAMPA, Fla.--Oct. 27, 2000--Allied Automotive Group (AAG), a subsidiary of Allied Holdings, Inc. is benefiting from Transflo.com, an Application Service Provider (ASP) that provides Document Imaging Services and Image and Data Connectivity between carriers.

In order to handle this increase in volume and to position the Quality Department to achieve its goal of responding to claims within 15 days after they are received, a more effective process needed to be put in place, and Transflo.com is that source."
    "Allied was looking for an entire solution. With our flexibility and expertise in transportation, we were the perfect fit for their needs," says Leslie Berlin, president and CEO of Pegasus TransTech.

    The Transflo.com ASP offers unparalleled transportation-specific document management services on a transactional basis with a state-of-the-art Operations Center. Document images are securely managed on-line and accessible via the Internet or from a direct frame relay connection.
