Achieving Flexibility Across Modes, Carriers, and Markets
Transportation market gyrations and recurring supply chain disruptions are enough to keep anyone up at night. Now, more than ever, logistics teams need to manage the end-to-end journey of products with the flexibility to move and plan across transit modes, add new carriers, and take advantage of spot markets.
No technology system can solve a pandemic or other disruption, but best-in-class transportation management systems can improve cost control, agility, visibility, and execution. A cloud-based TMS is particularly well-suited for today’s challenges by providing a harmonized interface across transportation modes (and languages), built-in access to expansive carrier networks, and the added advantages of a shorter implementation timeline and faster time-to-value.
