CASS completed the divestiture of its telecom expense management business unit for $18 million while focusing operations on transportation and facility invoice processing.

The sale of the TEM Business Unit represents a strategic pivot toward CASS's core transportation information services, eliminating the telecom and waste management business lines that were previously highlighted as competitive advantages. The company is positioning itself around AI-supported data processing capabilities while maintaining transition services revenue from the divested business for up to 18 months.
