Atlanta logistics companies run on the world’s busiest passenger airport, three interstates and two Class I railroads. Atlanta logistics and distribution companies get managed IT from ITServices.Tech, with help desk support, security, backups and planning in a single agreement.
A logistics capital
Hartsfield-Jackson handles large volumes of air cargo, UPS and Norfolk Southern are headquartered in the metro, and CSX and Norfolk Southern run major intermodal yards nearby. Containers from the Port of Savannah reach Atlanta by rail and truck, and distribution centers line Interstates 75, 85 and 20 in Henry, Clayton, south Fulton and Douglas counties.
Warehouse and yard systems
Warehouse, yard and transportation systems run every shift, with scanners, label printers and dock doors depending on the network. Wi-Fi surveys, monitored networks, spare devices and tested backups of warehouse systems keep trucks moving.
Air cargo and customs
Forwarders and brokers near the airport handle import entries and client data. Under 19 CFR 111.21, a licensed customs broker has three days after discovering a breach of its records to notify CBP. MFA, encryption and endpoint protection make that less likely.
Drivers and mobile devices
Drivers and yard staff use phones and tablets for routes, proof of delivery and electronic logs. We manage those devices, keep apps current and lock or wipe lost ones remotely.
Storm and outage planning
Severe storms and rare ice events can disrupt the region. Cloud dispatch, backup power for network gear and a plan for working from another site keep freight moving.

Georgia data rules to know
Georgia’s breach notification law, O.C.G.A. 10-1-912, covers information brokers and government data collectors rather than most private businesses. Georgia companies still owe notice under the laws of other states where affected customers and employees live, and under federal rules such as HIPAA.
Office hours in Atlanta
Office hours for Atlanta clients are Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Eastern, in your own time zone.
