ROCHELLE PARK, N.J., March 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Intelligent Audit, a global leader in freight audit, recovery, transportation spend optimization, and AI-powered technology, has been named one of Inbound Logistics’ Top 100 Logistics & Supply Chain Technology Providers for 2025. This recognition highlights Intelligent Audit’s continued impact in helping shippers drive cost efficiency, improve visibility, and strengthen supply chain operations through data-driven insights and automation.

“Being selected reinforces the value we deliver to our customers every day.”

Each year, Inbound Logistics evaluates hundreds of companies to identify the top 100 providers making the most meaningful technological contributions to logistics and supply chain performance. In 2025, over 400 companies were reviewed, and Intelligent Audit was selected as one of the top companies for its measurable value through innovative technology, advanced analytics, and reliable execution.

What Makes Intelligent Audit a Top Logistics & Supply Chain Technology Provider?

Founded in 1996, Intelligent Audit is the global leader in multimodal freight invoice audit, business intelligence, secure carrier payment, and AI-powered tools to optimize every area of a business’s shipping operations.

Two key differentiators are Intelligent Audit’s:

AI-powered Anomaly Detection—This proprietary technology, developed by renowned data scientist Dr. Brian Pollack, uses advanced machine learning to automatically uncover hidden cost drivers, fraud risks, and unusual behaviors that traditional audit processes miss—even when invoices look accurate on the surface. It saves shippers millions and provides an added layer of confidence that operations are running smoothly.

Groundbreaking Suite of Modeling Tools—Built to transform parcel operations, this long-awaited suite delivers exactly what the industry has been asking for. The powerful trio—Network Optimization Tool, Parcel Optimization Tool, and Parcel Contract Comparison Tool—allows shippers to simulate scenarios using their own data combined with advanced algorithms. In real time, they can optimize distribution centers, store locations, delivery routes, carrier mix, and service levels—arming them with the insights they need to make confident, strategic decisions.

“Being selected as a Top 100 Technology Provider by Inbound Logistics reinforces the value we deliver to our customers every day,” said Hannah Testani, CEO of Intelligent Audit. “In a market defined by complexity and uncertainty, our platform provides shippers with the clarity and control they need to reduce costs, improve service levels, and optimize shipping operations.”

Delivering Real Results for Shippers

Intelligent Audit partners with some of the world’s largest and most complex shippers across a wide range of industries, processing nearly two billion shipments each year.

Beyond award-winning freight audit, recovery, and payment services, Intelligent Audit’s platform leverages robust data normalization to unify disparate carrier invoices, tracking data, and operational details into a single source of truth. This consolidated view delivers actionable insights that help shippers save time, cut costs, and optimize operations at the most granular level.

Because when shippers move from reactive operations to strategic, data-driven planning—that’s when the real transformation begins.

Recognition From Industry Experts

Inbound Logistics’ annual Top 100 list is a trusted resource for logistics professionals evaluating technology partners. The publication’s editorial team vets candidates based on innovation, impact, reliability, and value to the shipper community. The 2025 list includes a range of solutions from widely adopted technologies such as Transportation Management Systems (TMS) and Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) to newer offerings such as AI and robotics.

This recognition comes at a time when shippers are looking for providers that can not only deliver innovation but also prove ROI, reduce complexity, and provide ongoing support.

Intelligent Audit’s inclusion in the 2025 Top 100 reflects its commitment to exceeding those expectations.

STEPHEN A. SMITH ADDRESSES WHITE HOUSE DINNER ATTENDANCE, REAFFIRMS COMMITMENT TO HBCUs AND PROTECTING CORPORATE INVESTMENT IN BLACK EDUCATION

Published

on

By

NEW YORK, Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Stephen A. Smith, media mogul, New York Times bestselling author, and proud 1991 graduate of Winston-Salem State University, is addressing the public discussion surrounding his decision to attend a White House dinner with President Donald Trump, emphasizing his commitment to the long-term financial stability of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

For Smith, the decision was rooted in a commitment to institutions that have educated generations of Black leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, and public servants.

“I will always advocate for HBCUs and the students whose futures depend on them,” Smith said. “My reason for attending the White House dinner was to discuss the challenges these institutions face in securing long-term funding and to make the case that corporate America must continue to invest in them.”

Smith acknowledged federal support through the FUTURE Act while expressing concern that political tensions surrounding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) could discourage private companies from supporting HBCUs. He maintains that these institutions deserve sustained corporate partnerships, philanthropic contributions, and public investment.

“If we truly believe in free-market capitalism, businesses should be able to support educational institutions and charitable causes without fear of criticism or repercussions,” Smith said. “HBCUs have made extraordinary contributions to this country. They deserve sustained public and private investment.”

Ashley Christopher, Esq., Founder and CEO of the HBCU Week Foundation, recognized Smith’s advocacy and decision to engage with the administration.

“Stephen A. Smith has been a powerful advocate for HBCUs, using his platform and influence to shine a national spotlight on our institutions,” expressed Christopher, “His continued support of HBCU Week helps advance our mission of connecting students with life-changing educational opportunities, and we are proud to have him as our ambassador.”

Since Smith became an HBCU Week Ambassador in 2019, the initiative has facilitated more than 15,000 on-the-spot college acceptances and raised and awarded more than $150 million in scholarships, according to the HBCU Week Foundation.

As public discussion continues, Smith is emphasizing the importance of ensuring HBCUs have the resources and partnerships needed to educate future generations and expand opportunities for students.
