HENDERSON, NV / ACCESSWIRE / April 21, 2016 / On the Move Systems' (OTC: OMVS) much anticipated "Uber for Trucking" shared economy platform got a major octane boost when the company inked a key letter of intent (LOI) with a Houston-area based trucking firm. The milestone agreement provides OMVS an industry partner that can deliver the online app a vital beta testing ground before its ultimate launch.
Thanks to the LOI, OMVS can now start collaborating with Tier 1 Transport and Logistics (Tier 1) on areas of common interest and benefit. Tier 1, based in the metropolitan Houston area, provides a variety of trucking services, including flatbed transport, less-than-truckload deliveries, temp controlled trucking, and small parcel.
"Tier 1's line of trucking services should provide a challenging and robust beta test for our cutting-edge shared economy app," said OMVS CEO Robert Wilson. "Once ready, we anticipate being able to put the platform through a wide variety of paces fully simulating what we will find out in the industry. Only this will be in a controlled environment where we can make additional refinements and improvements that will make our platform second to none. This agreement moves us much further along the road toward our ultimate goals."
OMVS' revolutionary on-demand platform will allow truckers to connect via an online app to improve operations, scheduling, routing and optimization. This platform will utilize the growing power of the shared economy, first made popular by such well-known companies as Uber, Lyft and AirbNb. Following their successful business model, OMVS intends to be a similar shared economy pioneer in the trucking and logistics industry.
The shared economy is booming as analysts estimate the total market for such services to be $450 billion.
