DNA S.A.M.M.I.E. is a logistics and freight management platform designed to provide unparalleled visibility of cargo movement during the shipment lifecycle.
Traditionally, freight visibility involves tons of emails, phone calls, and other manual processes to determine where cargo is as it moves from factory to final destination. It’s a messy process prone to data entry failures and other mistakes. A headache for all involved!
I worked with the team at DNA Supply Chain to build a solution to this problem from the ground up.
S.A.M.M.I.E provides a tracking solution that offers complete end-to-end visibility of where cargo is with the freshest possible data from multiple sources.
This means a user can see things like:
- Current location of the container.
- Original Arrival Date, and A.I. Predicted Arrival Date of the container to the final destination.
- All attachments that go with the shipment such as ISF, Bill of Lading, and more with one click.
- PO Number
- AND MORE
In addition to all of the visibility, the platform also offers several industry-leading features to interact with DNA during the shipment process including:
- Email notifications as the shipment progresses.
- Ability to “Request Update” directly from the tracking portal so that the human responsible for the shipment can put eyes on everything and make sure the data is as fresh and accurate as possible.
- Ability to “Mark as Hot” causing a shipment to stand out from others on the sheet, making it easier to track shipments in the portal that are high priority.
- Ability to show/hide what columns appear on the tracking sheet.
- Ability to export the sheet contents to Excel or PDF.
- Ability to cause shipments with delays to blink red when a an exception event occurs.
- AND MORE.

My team and I developed nearly all S.A.M.M.I.E features and in the process learned a significant amount about how the freight forwarding and logistics space operates. We leveraged a combination of PHP, JavaScript, and jQuery to bring S.A.M.M.I.E to life. A designer worked directly for me along with several engineers under my direction throughout the development process. All of them executed with excellence. This combination of expertise allowed us to build something truly special in the logistics/freight space. I’m proud of all involved and look forward to build more things like this!
