Industry People On The Move — November 2019
Mark Bromley, a 20-year veteran of the logistics industry, has been named vice president of intermodal for Tideworks Technology Inc., a full-service provider of comprehensive terminal operating systems (TOS) for marine and intermodal terminals. The Seattle, Wash.-based firm announced it will create a dedicated intermodal division located in Jacksonville, Fla., and plans to hire additional staff focused on intermodal technology and sales to augment its current Jacksonville work force.
“This expansion solidifies Tideworks’ position and commitment as a key intermodal TOS provider,” said Thomas Rucker, president of Tideworks. “It will empower us to drive future adoption of our intermodal TOS, while exploring additional ways to serve the intermodal market that align well with our business. This growth and focus allow Tideworks to deploy specialized resources for the intermodal market—a necessity in the increasingly competitive global supply chain. Our existing and future intermodal customers can have confidence and comfort knowing Tideworks has a fully-staffed team focused on the market and its unique needs.”
“I am excited to see Tideworks’ increased commitment to the intermodal market,” said Bromley. “Jacksonville is a prime location for this dedicated team given its proximity to some of our key customers, including leading rail carriers. We look forward to working closely with our current and future intermodal customers to deliver solutions that help them remain competitive in the global supply chain.”
