Cesario has served at CLI as the company’s Senior Transportation Consultant for the past eight years. In his new role, as the company continues to add functionality to its FACTS solution, he will be responsible for their software development roadmap including enhancements to many operational areas such as dispatch and routing. Additionally, he will spearhead the planning and deployment of customer support and training activities.
“CLI already offers an incredible product for LTL carriers and I’ve been proud to have been able to train and advise our customers on how to utilize the software to optimize their processes and operations,” Cesario said. “Now, I’m not only able to continue in that role. I am also looking forward to helping build on the technology that CLI offers to drive productivity and lower costs for our clients.”
