TMS: TIME TO DITCH THE SPREADSHEETS
“Compliance features in a TMS automate supplier performance monitoring and deliver real-time insights for continuous improvement. In today’s world of transparency and accountability, a TMS that ensures supplier compliance is essential.” ALAN MILLER President, TransportGistics
TransportGistics: Compliance-Focused TMS Customer expectations continue to elevate, with shorter delivery windows and real-time updates throughout the shipment process. Transportation management systems are critical to help businesses plan, execute, and optimize the movement of goods to ensure that goods flow in the manner customers expect. The foundation of an effective TMS is trading partner compliance to ensure enhanced operational efficiency, improved transparency and accountability, and risk reduction, says Alan Miller, president of TransportGistics, a provider of global software solutions based in Mount Sinai, New York. By implementing TransportGistics’ TMS solution (TGI-TMS), businesses can standardize processes, reduce variability, and achieve consistent and reliable outcomes. This oversight leads to improved order handling,
reduced shipping costs, and enhanced customer satisfaction. TransportGistics’ TGI-TMS not only orchestrates the standard TMS functions but also ensures that every workflow, from order entry and shipment scheduling to documentation and billing, is executed according to defined standards. “We’re transforming the landscape of transportation management by
embedding standardized, audit-ready processes into every facet of the supply chain,” Miller adds. “This approach not only helps companies steer through complex trading partner frameworks but also enhances operational integrity and transparency.” Lack of compliance throughout the process can lead to costly inefficiencies and a lack of transparency into supplier performance.
