It can be deployed in just weeks and allows for enterprise scalability. Ultimately, shippers using the Fortigo TMS can automate, optimize, and audit their logistics processes across the supply chain so that the right product arrives at the right place at the right time, incurring the lowest possible cost. Fortigo’s TMS leverages advanced optimization algorithms to maximize efciency and cost savings. It considers factors such as routing, mode selection, carrier rates, and service levels to identify the most cost-effective transportation options while following all enterprise business rules. Fortigo uses AI-driven spend dashboards to maximize visibility and empower shippers’ supply chain data, tracking carrier performance and spend trends. End-to-end visibility into transportation activities gives users the power of proactive decision-making and exception management. Fortigo customers include large, multinational companies with complex constraints and global shipping across all geographies while using multiple modes of transportation. CLOSED-LOOP SOLUTION Many shippers pair Fortigo’s TMS with its Freight Audit solution to enjoy the benets of a closed-loop supply chain solution that optimizes efciency and enhances cost control throughout the transportation lifecycle. Kontoravdis says the Fortigo closed-loop ecosystem ensures maximum visibility, and pairing Fortigo’s Freight Audit service with its TMS can compound customer savings. A closed-loop approach helps shippers access additional carriers, enforce business rules throughout the shipment process, identify incorrect charge codes, and recoup savings. “Upon customer funding, Fortigo can pay carriers in any geography and with any currency,” Kontoravdis says. “This allows you to deploy a closed-loop logistics solution on a global scale, maximizing the savings potential while also improving transportation efciency and visibility.”

The project yielded $5.2 million in annual audit savings. Ultimately, Honeybee TMS serves as a tting complement to CTSI-Global’s freight bill audit and payment process. That has notable benets for shippers. “Using the same company for TMS that you use for the audit limits your integrations,” Scott says. “We capture the needed shipment data up front to use as a match to the carrier invoice when it comes in. It makes the data so much more meaningful and powerful.” Shippers know better than anyone that their supply chain needs never stop changing and evolving. For that reason, Fortigo TMS is forever changing, too, adapting to the latest technology, trends, and market dynamics to offer a solution that ensures shippers are always equipped to meet the demands of the moment—whether they are sending a letter, box, pallet, or shipping container. Fortigo’s commitment to continuous customer-oriented improvement and innovation for its TMS solution means that the company routinely incorporates new enhancements to expand the solution’s capabilities. Those enhancements help the Fortigo TMS emphasize efciency and agility while serving to simplify the supply chain for the shippers who use it. Flexibility is at the core of the Fortigo TMS offering. “Our TMS is built on a scalable FORTIGO: FLEXIBLE, SCALABLE, AND CUSTOMER-ORIENTED architecture, allowing it to grow and adapt to the changing needs of the customer,” says George Kontoravdis, founder and president of Fortigo, an Austin, Texas- based TMS provider. “Whether managing a small volume of shipments or a large, complex transportation network, our TMS can accommodate any level of demand and scale accordingly.” The Fortigo TMS drives down operating costs, improves access to logistics information, enforces business strategy, and reduces freight costs.

In addition, it shortens the accounts receivable cycle, increases collaboration with suppliers and vendors, and improves the customer experience. The Fortigo TMS offers robust support for multimodal transportation, adding to its exibility. The Fortigo TMS, which is web- based, offers shippers with one system of record for logistics across multiple sites. The solution is carrier neutral and interfaces with ERP and SCM systems. Upon customer funding, Fortigo can pay carriers in any geography and with any currency. This allows you to deploy a closed-loop logistics solution on a global scale, maximizing the savings potential while also improving transportation eciency and visibility.
