About Logista:  Logista is the first rapidly deployable logistics management software designed specifically for the needs of disaster response professionals, allowing you to track anything, anywhere you want to. With its user-friendly interface and automated features, Logista saves time, reduces costs, and ultimately saves lives in emergency situations.

​Logista was created by disaster response professionals because of what we experienced during COVID-19. It has been in research and development since Winter 2021 when it was deployed as the primary logistics management software at alternate care sites across California. Since then, Logista has tracked millions of items in real-world responses. We've built over 35 versions to incorporate feedback from pilot partners, emergency managers, and public health professionals like yourself. It has gone on to win awards from the UN International Computing Centre, Columbia University, The Beba Foundation, and Village Capital for its innovative solutions.

Logista is a product developed by Preston Solutions and Support. Please reach out to us with any questions at: [email protected].​
