Descartes Systems Group (Nasdaq:DSGX) (TSX:DSG), the global leader
in uniting logistics-intensive businesses in commerce, announced
that the Administrator of the United States Federal Motor Carrier
Safety Administration (FMCSA), Anne Ferro, is scheduled to present
at Descartes' "Evolution 2013" Global User & Partner Conference
in Miami, Florida, November 12-14, 2013.
Appointed by President Obama in 2009, Ms. Ferro is FMCSA's
longest serving Administrator. Administrator Ferro directs FMCSA's
actions to remove unsafe motor carriers and drivers from the
nation's roadways with a combination of effective rules and
regulations, education and enforcement, accountability and
compliance, and research and analysis.
Ms. Ferro's keynote presentation will provide deeper insight
into the administration's strategic plan and key programs in
support of its mission, including the Moving Ahead for Progress in
the 21st Century Act ("MAP-21"; P.L. 112-141). Signed into law by
President Obama in July 2012, and currently being implemented,
MAP-21 includes important provisions intended to improve safety
that affect commercial motor vehicle operators, brokers and
forwarders.
Evolution 2013 is the pinnacle event where Descartes' customers
and partners from around the world get together to network, share
perspectives, gain insight on technology and industry trends,
