Boeing CEO Dennis Muilenburg appeared before the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation on Tuesday to discuss concerns over the 737 Max aircraft and the future of aviation safety.

Muilenburg began his testimony with an apology to the families of those who lost their lives in two separate crashes involving the 737 Max. The most notable revelation, however, was the admission that he was notified between the two crashes of a test pilot’s claim of “egregious” problems with the Max’s flight control system.

What will the fallout be from this testimony? Daniel Litwin and Tyler Kern discuss in this excerpt from Business Casual.

International and PlusAI are building Level 4 trucks around NVIDIA's Thor chip

International and PlusAI are building Level 4 trucks around NVIDIA's Thor chip

International Motors and PlusAI are building factory-installed Level 4 trucks on NVIDIA's DRIVE AGX Hyperion platform and Thor chip, Fleet Owner reported. Nauto CEO Stefan Heck told Heavy Duty Trucking the harder job is proving safety across hundreds of billions of real miles. Early runs will stick to corridors like Interstate 10.

  • 01Even at Stefan Heck's top projection of 200,000 self-driving vehicles within two years, autonomous systems will still represent only a small fraction of the market for years compared to the roughly 12 million trucks operating in the US, according to Heavy Duty Trucking.
  • 02The sharper question to put to any Level 4 vendor is which corridors it can document as validated with real miles, since Heck argues simulation only covers scenarios engineers have already imagined.
  • 03Grote's 4SEE Digital Harness brings lamp-specific fault reporting and over-the-air updates to the trailer, a spec item fleets can write now regardless of when the tractor drives itself.

Averitt Podcast Details TMS and Dynamic Pricing Tools

Averitt Podcast Details TMS and Dynamic Pricing Tools

In a March 23, 2026 podcast episode published on its Point to Point blog, Averitt's Director of Integrated Services Sales discussed how the carrier's Averitt Connect TMS platform and ExactRate dynamic pricing tool are commonly set up together, with Connect pulling LTL rates from ExactRate for quoting, visibility and invoicing. Separately, a January 2025 World Economic Forum essay and a November 2024 Computers in Industry literature review addressed AI in supply chains and supply chain management research more broadly, without directly addressing freight rate-setting.

  • 01Averitt described its Averitt Connect TMS and ExactRate dynamic pricing tool in a March 23, 2026 podcast episode.
  • 02A January 2025 WEF essay discussed AI's role in supply chain resilience but did not address freight pricing.

BTS Rail Data Change: CP and KCS Charts Retired in Favor of CPKC

BTS Rail Data Change: CP and KCS Charts Retired in Favor of CPKC

The Bureau of Transportation Statistics said on Sept. 8, 2026 that a new interagency working group will develop supply chain data, and confirmed that standalone Canadian Pacific and Kansas City Southern rail charts will not be updated now that Canadian Pacific Kansas City reports combined data. BTS noted CPKC began weekly reporting on May 10, 2025, following the April 14, 2023 merger.

  • 01CPKC reporting replaced separate CP and KCS charts starting May 10, 2025, with no future updates to the standalone series
  • 02Historical trend analysis spanning the May 2025 changeover requires clear documentation of the data discontinuity to maintain analytical integrity
  • 03BTS organizes freight data into four sections: port data inside and outside the gate, freight movement, and transportation costs and labor demand
