Clarifying CINCH platform ownership, development, and long-term support through a collaborative, customer-focused approach as Dynamics GP evolves 

May 4, 2026 – Alpharetta, GA – Greenstone Systems reaffirmed today their long-term commitment to the CINCH platform for Intellego users.

CINCH has always been developed, maintained, and supported by Greenstone. While some customers may recognize the name Intellego, that product was a white-labeled version of CINCH. As market messaging shifts, Greenstone is clarifying that the CINCH platform remains fully available, supported, and independent. 

We are committed to having CINCH be a part of your business now and in the future. CINCH is not going away, and customers are not required to move to a new system in the near future.

Customers retain their license rights and working directly with Greenstone may reduce their overall costs. We want users to have accurate information so they can make confident, informed decisions about their business systems.

Mary Friedrichsen Tangen, Vice President of Business Solutions at Greenstone

CINCH Remains Fully Supported and Available 

Greenstone confirmed that CINCH continues to be actively maintained and enhanced. Customers with active support and maintenance agreements can continue using the platform without disruption. 

For Intellego users, no system change is required. Since Intellego has always been powered by Greenstone’s CINCH platform, customers can maintain continuity simply by working directly with Greenstone.

Greenstone also addressed Microsoft’s previously announced Dynamics GP lifecycle milestones. Microsoft has stated that product enhancements, regulatory updates (including tax updates), and technical support will end on December 31, 2029, followed by the end of security updates and patches on April 30, 2031 for customers on a current enhancement plan. Despite these timelines, Dynamics GP and CINCH will continue to operate. Greenstone will provide ongoing support beyond Microsoft’s end-of-support dates, help ensure customers maintain stability, continuity, and a clear path forward. 

Greenstone encourages organizations to take a proactive approach to their ERP strategy and have outlined a strategic path forward for customers. Options include: 

  • Extending the life of Dynamics GP through cloud migration  
  • Optimizing current system performance  
  • Staying current on supported versions for extended longevity 

Our role is to support each customer’s success. We take a collaborative approach, working alongside our customers as their businesses evolve, continually advancing our solutions to meet their changing needs and position them for long-term success.

Mary Friedrichsen Tangen, Vice President of Business Solutions at Greenstone

New executive role strengthens Greenstone’s focus on facility operations products and enhances support for customers across the agribusiness supply chain.

February 2026  – Alpharetta, GA – Greenstone Systems, a Cultura company, announced today the hiring of Allan Venters as the new Vice President of Facility Operations. This strategic addition reinforces Greenstone’s commitment to delivering innovative, integrated solutions that help agribusinesses streamline operations, improve decision-making, and operate more efficiently.

In this role, Venters will lead Greenstone’s facility operations portfolio—guiding product strategy, advancing technology integrations, and elevating customer experience across key operational systems used in grain and agronomy facilities.

Venters brings extensive leadership experience across Cultura and the broader agribusiness technology industry. He joined Cultura in 2015 as a subject-matter expert before leading sales for Proceres, a Cultura company. He later served as Director of Commercial Operations for Proceres, overseeing both sales and product teams. Most recently, Venters served as Director of Operations at Solentra and is now transitioning to his new role at Greenstone. His strong cross-functional leadership experience and deep operational expertise uniquely position him to deepen Greenstone’s capabilities and strengthen the design, delivery, and evolution of its Facility Operations solutions.

Late last year, Greenstone refocused its organization to better support customers, grow the business, and focus investment across its product lines. The new structure includes three primary business areas:

  • Business Solutions, led by Mary Tangen, Vice President of Business Solutions 
  • Facility Operations, now led by Allan Venters, Vice President of Facility Operations 
  • Emerging Products, led by Scott Dilts, Director of Emerging Products 

Strengthening our leadership team and refining our organizational focus have been central to positioning Greenstone for long-term growth.

This structure allows us to be even more aligned with our customers’ needs, accelerate product innovation, and bring deeper expertise into each area of our business. I’m excited about the impact Allan will have as we continue building the tools that help agribusinesses operate with greater efficiency and confidence.

Duey Yliniemi, General Manager at Greenstone Systems

With this leadership expansion, Greenstone Systems continues advancing its mission of delivering integrated, mission-critical software that supports the full scope of agribusiness operations—from grain origination to facility management to emerging data and analytics solutions.

New transportation management solution for agribusinesses through partnership with BulkLoads, offering end-to-end visibility, automation, and control for agribusiness transportation.

December 2025 – Alpharetta, GA – Greenstone Systems, a Cultura company, today announced the official launch of AgTMS, a comprehensive transportation management solution designed specifically for agribusiness. Developed in partnership with BulkLoads, AgTMS empowers grain originators, merchandisers, and logistics professionals with the tools to plan, dispatch, manage, and track freight more efficiently—all within a unified, data-driven platform.

Building on Greenstone’s long-standing commitment to integrated agribusiness software, AgTMS brings real-time visibility, automation, and collaboration to the forefront of grain logistics. With freight costs continuing to impact margins across the industry, AgTMS helps users optimize transportation workflows, streamline carrier coordination, and gain actionable insights into grain movements from origin to destination.

Greenstone’s passion for agribusiness software aligns perfectly with Bulkloads’ commitment to carriers. This partnership lets us better capture carrier insights and turn them into stronger tools for shippers.

Jared Flinn, Co-Founder of BulkLoads

Key capabilities of AgTMS include: 

  • Scheduling & Planning: Execution alerts, automated contract reconciliation, contract-to-load linking, and delivery & fulfillment tracking.
  • Dispatching: Load assignment, live load status, and driver & carrier coordination.
  • Load Management: Load offers, load scheduling, end-to-end visibility, and automatic load booking.
  • Load Tracking: Near real-time location updates, automated alerts, and ETA predictions.

Additional enhancements are already in development, including invoicing and direct shipping solutions, as Greenstone continues to invest in expanding the platform’s capabilities.

AgTMS embodies our passion for tackling the everyday challenges agribusinesses face and delivering tools that help them operate with greater efficiency and profitability.

By connecting transportation and logistics data with our broader ecosystem—including AGRIS and oneWeigh—we’re giving customers the visibility and control they need to manage freight in real time and make smarter decisions.

Duey Yliniemi, General Manager at Greenstone Systems

As early adopters begin preparing for implementation, agribusiness leaders are expressing enthusiasm for the platform’s potential impact.

AgTMS is going to be a great product, and we are very excited to start utilizing the efficiency it will bring to our company.

You are combining two great products—Greenstone’s oneFreight and BulkLoads—pulling the best from each and making the final product even better.

Ryan Carwell, President of Poinsett Rice

And from a customer perspective, the value of integrated planning and communication is already resonating. 

What we’ve seen so far from AgTMS aligns closely with the drivers’ communication and planning tools we’ve worked toward internally.

Some of the dispatch and scheduling capabilities have more nuance than what we had originally designed for ourselves. As the integrations come together—across oneWeigh, our third-party partners, and our direct-ship workflows—we see AgTMS moving us closer to a fully integrated system and eventually automated invoicing.

Sarah McNeil, Business Intelligence Manager at Cooperative Producers, Inc.

Together with BulkLoads, Greenstone Systems is redefining what’s possible in grain logistics—helping agribusinesses move freight with greater efficiency, accuracy, and confidence.

Turning Agribusiness Data into Action 

November 2025 – Alpharetta, GA – Greenstone Systems, a Cultura company and leading provider of mid-market agribusiness software solutions, today announced the official launch of Insights, a next-generation business intelligence (BI) platform designed to help grain, feed, and agribusiness operations transform operational data from core business systems, including ERPs such as AGRIS, into clear, actionable insights. Insights is a key addition to the Greenstone ecosystem today, with more ERP integrations on the horizon.

Following a successful pilot program with select customers, Insights is now broadly available to the agribusiness community—delivering dashboards, flexible alerts, and intuitive analytics that empower teams to make confident, data-driven decisions.

From Data to Decisions

Insights transforms how agribusinesses view, share, and act on operational information. Connecting directly to the ERP, it unifies grain inventory, discounts, and contracts into a single reliable view. Users can monitor performance, spot trends, and respond instantly to market changes.

From Data to Decisions

Insights transforms how agribusinesses view, share, and act on operational information. Connecting directly to the ERP, it unifies grain inventory, discounts, and contracts into a single reliable view. Users can monitor performancespot trends, and respond instantly to market changes. 

Key capabilities include: 

  • Near real-time visibility into grain movement and position from any device. 
  • Detailed discount and premium tracking to strengthen margin management. 
  • Alerts for unsigned or delayed contracts to protect revenue. 
  • Year-over-year customer insights to support strategic growth. 
  • Scheduled reports and notifications to keep teams aligned. 

Insights gives our customers a clearer line of sight into their business. We listened to what our customers needed most—simple, meaningful visibility—and built Insights to help them turn that information into confident, daily decisions.

Duey Yliniemi, General Manager at Greenstone Systems

That immediate access to reliable information is already changing how finance leaders approach reporting and analysis. 

From my perspective as a CFO, Insights enables me with immediate visibility without needing to run a report and then manipulate the data in Excel using pivot tables or other formats.

Billy Wickham, CFO at Frontier Ag Inc.

Guided by Customer Experience 

Developed in collaboration with pilot users, Insights reflects how agribusinesses actually work. Feedback from early adopters guided core design and functionality choices, ensuring the platform is practical, intuitive, and impactful

Being able to pull my customer information with ease anytime, anywhere is very helpful to me. If we’d had this last year, we would have caught an accidental payment in premiums instead of a subtraction in discounts with one of our larger customers.

Carly Wheeting, Merchandiser at Glacial Lakes Energy

Built for What’s Next 

With its launch, Insights marks a new chapter in Greenstone’s ongoing investment in connected, data-driven agribusiness technology. The platform’s flexible foundation will continue to evolve, adding new dashboards, reports, and integrations that build on customer feedback and industry needs. 

Insights is more than a reporting tool—it’s a foundation for smarter, faster operations. It also sets the stage for more advanced analytics capabilities in the future, helping our customers unlock the full potential of their data.

Greenstone Systems Announces Launch of Insights — A Next-Generation Business Intelligence Platform for Agribusiness

September 10, 2025 – Alpharetta, GA – Greenstone Systems, a Cultura company and leading provider of mid-market agribusiness software solutions, today announced the upcoming launch of Insights, a business intelligence (BI) platform designed to help grain, feed, and agribusiness operations transform operational data from AGRIS and oneWeigh into clear, actionable insights. 

Insights Built for Real Agribusiness Needs

The new Insights platform will seamlessly integrate with AGRIS and oneWeigh, enabling users to access, clean, curate, and calculate data through intuitive dashboards and real-time performance metrics. This streamlined data flow empowers agribusinesses to make faster, more informed decisions with confidence. Designed for grain elevators, feed mills, and agribusiness managers, Insights enables users to:

  • Track location performance in near real time to reduce waste and error, increase profitability, and answer internal and customer questions
  • Review discounts in detail at any time to manage your business and relationships 
  • Identify unsigned or delayed contracts before they impact revenue to protect your position and accelerate deal closures
  • Analyze customer performance year-over-year to uncover growth opportunities and strengthen long-term relationships
  • Eliminate reliance on manual spreadsheets or homegrown BI tools to save time, reduce errors, and empower teams with reliable insights. 
  • Send emails and alerts using flexible schedules and criteria to distribute insights, provide managerial transparency, and follow up on unusual situations quickly

Our customers needed a better way to bring their data together and make faster, more confident decisions—without relying on manual workarounds. We listened, we learned, and we delivered something entirely new. By combining the real-world needs of our customers with our team’s deep AGRIS and oneWeigh expertise, we’ve built a platform that delivers clear, trusted insights—empowering agribusinesses to operate more efficiently and drive profitability.

Said Duey Yliniemi, General Manager at Greenstone Systems.

Customer-Driven Development

The beta version of Insights is currently in the hands of Greenstone customers, whose real-world feedback is shaping the first release. This collaborative approach ensures that it will deliver immediate, tangible value to the agribusiness community when Insights launches.

We’ve lacked easy transparence into harvest and location activity before, which made it hard to validate complaints, assess performance, or proactively address issues. This gives us on-demand visibility into discounts and premiums to help guide our decisions.

Janet Bear, Grain Division Manager at Frontier Ag Inc.

Insights will officially launch later this year, bringing agribusinesses a new standard of clarity, efficiency, and profitability. With this release, Greenstone continues its commitment to empowering the agribusiness community with trusted, innovative technology.

June 30, 2025 – Alpharetta, GA – Greenstone Systems, a Cultura company, is proud to announce a strategic partnership with BulkTMS, a transportation management solution developed by BulkLoads. This collaboration marks a pivotal advancement in Greenstone’s commitment to delivering innovative, scalable solutions for grain logistics and supply chain optimization across the agribusiness sector. 

Freight costs are among the most significant variables affecting the margin of compression in agriculture. With transportation and logistics playing a critical role in grain movements, the need for real-time visibility and integrated data has never been more urgent. Greenstone’s partnership with BulkLoads addresses these challenges head-on by introducing a fully integrated TMS solution to AGRIS and oneWeigh.

Partnering with BulkTMS will give our customers a unique position to better understand how to manage freight costs, carrier management, and grain movements from origin to destination

Duey Yliniemi, General Manager at Greenstone Systems

Greenstone Systems’ TMS offering will provide an intuitive solution for tracking and managing grain freight and will be available through Greenstone Systems. This platform will support carrier engagement, GPS-based tracking, integration with the motor carrier network, and seamless data sharing, offering customers unprecedented visibility into grain transportation. 

From the very beginning—14 years ago—we’ve admired Greenstone and Cultura from afar. Through continued relationships, we’re humbled and honored to now work alongside their teams to support commodity traders, logistics professionals, and trucking companies.

Together, we’re simplifying the end-to-end load life cycle by connecting systems to reduce manual entry and eliminate redundant transfer of information across bill of ladings, scale tickets, and other key freight documents

Jared Flinn, Co-Founder of BulkLoads

Together, Greenstone Systems and BulkLoads are redefining what’s possible in grain logistics and bringing greater efficiency, transparency, and innovation to the heart of agribusiness.
