This week, Andrew has a candid conversation with Jett McCandless, CEO and founder of project44, about his freight journey, from making $12 an hour at Roadway Express to building a global supply chain network that powers more than 1 billion shipments across 180+ countries each year. Jett opens up about growing up on food stamps in Section 8 housing, the hard-earned lessons from his exit at GlobalTranz, and the bold vision behind project44’s next frontier: Movement, its Decision Intelligence Platform.

In this episode, Jett shares:

• The story of GlobalTranz's rapid growth, the complexities of its sale, and how that experience fueled his next move.
• How project44 evolved from an LTL API tool into a global visibility platform and now into the newly launched Movement, an AI-powered decision engine.
• Why “visibility” today means more than track and trace and how true supply chain intelligence includes inventory in motion, predictive insights, and transaction-level optimization.
• His big vision and response to industry buzz around project44 becoming an “operating system” for logistics and why that vision could shift power dynamics in the industry. 
• A bold take on the future of transactional brokerages and why tech-forward disruption is just getting started.
