Rochester, PA, July 5, 2001 eflatbed.com®, an online logistics
management company focused exclusively on flatbed transportation, today reported
that it was ranked as the largest business-to-business (B2B) Internet company
in the Pittsburgh area, according to a Pittsburgh Business Times listing published
on June 22, 2001.
The B2B companies were ranked according to the number of online transactions
completed in 2000. eflatbed.com completed 7,550 online transactions in 2000

when many online companies are struggling. eflatbed.com has continually grown
to reach a significant amount of liquidity, and this continual growth demonstrates
the value we are bringing to shippers and carriers in the metals, lumber,
and building materials industries, said Gregg A. Troian, President
and CEO of Quadrivius, Inc., eflatbed.coms parent company.
eflatbed.coms online suite of tools enhances shippers relations
with carriers by providing a private environment to facilitate the shipment
transaction. Shipments can be automatically tendered to preferred carriers
