Qv21 Technologies’ fleet management and logistics SaaS solutions to support improved waste-to-resource conversion and sustainability for organizations

AMCS, a global leader of sustainability software for foundational industries, announced today its acquisition of Qv21 Technologies, a leading provider of fleet management and logistics SaaS solutions for short-haul, bulk commodity transportation, for an undisclosed amount.

Founded in 2009 in Austin, Texas, Qv21 Technologies enables short-haul and bulk commodity trucking companies of all sizes to increase operational visibility and improve overall efficiency. With their mission of enabling Logistics Without Barriers™, Qv21’s powerful solution, The LogisticsFramework™ (TLF), streamlines business processes from order to invoice. Backed with robust data management, workflow automation, and analytics capabilities, Qv21 ensures organizations are in complete control of their operations while boosting their savings and profit margins.

The innovative fleet management and logistics solutions by Qv21 Technologies, along with its North American footprint and focus on bulk material transportation, are highly complementary to the AMCS Platform, benefiting customers of both organizations. The acquisition empowers AMCS to expand the capabilities of the AMCS Platform, enabling resource-intensive industries to achieve their sustainability goals faster, more efficiently, and profitably.

“Qv21 Technologies has consistently offered innovative solutions built for short-haul, bulk commodity transportation companies, enhancing operational excellence for leading organizations, including those in the waste and recycling sectors,” said Jonathan Currie, CEO, Qv21 Technologies. “Qv21's commitment to 'Logistics Without Barriers' boosts efficiency and profitability for transporters. Beyond the opportunities for business expansion, our partnership with AMCS further strengthens this pursuit of operational excellence for our clients and accelerates our collective vision for greater sustainability.“

This acquisition paves the way for several synergistic opportunities to be realized, specifically aiding organizations in the long-haul transport of bulk commodities that can support a more circular economy vision. Materials that were previously considered waste and destined for landfill sites can now be effectively directed towards reuse or recycling facilities. With Qv21, AMCS can provide organizations with a solution for a more structured, efficient approach to resource utilization and improved waste management, translating to meaningful progress toward their sustainability goals.

“The strategic addition of Qv21 Technologies signifies a crucial advancement for AMCS, reinforcing our position at the forefront of Performance Sustainability,” explained, Jimmy Martin, co-founder and CEO, AMCS. “This partnership provides tremendous opportunities, specifically for companies engaged within bulk material transportation, to reach their sustainability goals faster. The features that Qv21 brings to the table serve to enhance our capabilities at AMCS, strengthening our ability to support our clients' drive towards enhanced resource management, greater efficiency, sustainability, growth, and profitability.”

With AMCS, businesses can improve performance and scale more easily, enabling foundational industry professionals to leave the planet in a better way than they found it.

Elliptic Launches Its Decode Agent to Answer On-Chain Risk Questions and Shows Its Work17.9.2026 15:00:00 CEST | Press release

Hours of tracing, answered in seconds, with the evidence attached Elliptic, the global leader in on-chain risk, today launched Decode, an AI agent built on Elliptic’s intelligence platform. The Decode agent answers natural-language questions about cryptoasset addresses and their exposure in seconds, and returns the evidence behind every answer. Compliance and investigations teams need answers to questions nobody planned for. Getting them out of the data is now a specialist skill, so the questions wait for someone who has it, or go unasked. Meanwhile illicit actors move at machine speed, and agents are starting to sit on both sides of a payment. General-purpose AI assistants can produce an answer. They cannot show where it came from. A fluent response with nothing behind it cannot be put in front of a second-line reviewer, an auditor, or a regulator. “The market is full of AI that asks to be trusted.
