In simple words, advanced Transport Management Systems are software solutions that can help companies streamline their shipping process across all freight modes, gain visibility into transportation operations, reduce their freight costs, and operate more efficiently.
The core capabilities of a TMS usually revolve around planning and optimizing (for managing customer expectations and minimizing delays), executing (to optimize workflow), mobilizing (driver app to track trips, approvals, invoices, alerts, and proof of delivery), and optimizing (tracking performance).
Importance of Having an Advanced TMS For Your Business
As the logistics industry is rapidly changing and expanding, deploying an advanced Transportation Management System is crucial. With the system, most processes have become automated, resulting in reduced paperwork, faster delivery times, fewer delays and time saving. Businesses can invest the saved time in improving customer experience and focusing more on other aspects of your business.
Using a robust and feature rich TMS allows you to track freight nationally and locally on a single integrated platform with fewer shipment delays and real-time updates.

Though there is a financial cost involved in installing a TMS, usually the ROI exceeds the investment significantly.
