We knew we needed something to replace our current automation. Our current vendor was consistently coming up short and not responding to our needs. If we were to grow the business without significantly increase staff hour managing inventories.

Truck-Rail Handling Inc. (TRH) has partnered with Advanced Technical Innovations, Inc. (ATI) to provide a multimodal logistics solution for the unique needs of our bulk transportation business. ATI’s RIMS software handles our rail-to-bulk truck transfer service.

Ventura Transfer Company has been in the transloading business for decades. In 1997, we started working with Advanced Technology Innovations, Inc. (ATI). Since then, ATI has been pivotal in meeting our automation needs.

QuickBooks interface with RIMS has reduced our invoicing to half the time we were spending trying to bill our customers. Before RIMS each PO or delivery required a hand typed Bill of Lading in a Word document.

Liquids Transloading Ltd. (LTL), has been doing business with AdvanceTechnology Innovations (ATI) and using RIMS, since 2012. We had been searching for an inventory management system for some time, but there wasnot a program specific to transloading.

OmniTRAX Logistics Services started using R.I.M.S. in 2014. We needed a system that could manage our growing transload business, and after evaluating several products, we decided to go with ATI’s Railcar Inventory Management System.

Within the short amount of time that our database has been implemented our company has experienced a noticeable increase in sales, production, and customer service response. Our productivity has increased such that the database has alleviated the need for us to hire two additional employees.

ATI, including Frank Marafino and his staff, have completed several projects for us. They updated old programs and created entirely new applications. We found their approach to be very thorough and professional. They make a point of clearly defining the project goals and expectations. Our opinion is that they have a highly competent staff.

I have used many different vendors for programming and I appreciate the fact that you gave me a price and time frame and stuck to it. In addition the upgrade you did is working perfectly.

“Bob M. Cohen & Assoc. Law Corporation (Cohen & Associates) has specialized in personal injury cases over the past seventeen (17) years. During this time, the firm had developed a need to update and modernize our computer software system due to increase in client case load and new technology.

Mr. Arthur Villa and his key technical resources of Frank Marafino and Larry Lichtman were able to quickly identify bottleneck areas of our internal event processing and offer solutions that ultimately streamlined processing time and increased our tracking abilities. I was impressed with Mr. Villa’s communication skills.

Over the last six months, Frank Marafino has been instrumental in our re-creation and implementation of our computer system here at Great West Produce. Mr. Marafino has effectively re-written our internal automation system. The core components of the system are based on design concepts conceived by Art Villa and his associates at a former company.

The project we contracted ATI to do involved automating the presentation of our invoices into an electronic format. Electro Rent’s billing department would spend 80-100 hours per month creating Excel invoices for electronic transmission to 300 of our largest customers. ATI automated this process to where the time spent was reduced down to approximately 20 hours each month.

I have been working with ATI and Frank Marafino on a regular basis since 2001. From the onset I appreciated Frank’s “can do” attitude. He bailed me out of a software problem I was having when no one else could. He came to my office, opened his laptop, and before I knew it he was repairing an old program that we were stuck with.

Frank Marafino has been associated with our company since 1998 in regards to selection of programs suited to our temporary employment business. This includes selections of general ledgers and the setup of those programs. The interface needed between the temporary payroll systems used and the general ledger system selected.
