It’s TIME! Let’s transform the TMS
(Transportation Management Systems):
Placed an order from your favorite restaurant? You are eager to know at what time the food is delivered. Where is your delivery guy? Which route is he picking? You even have the option to give customized instructions. There is visibility at each point. All of this is supported by real-time tracking that food delivery applications have enabled.
Now imagine if you had the same flexibility while tracking your fleet. If you could know exactly where your shipment is. You could easily avoid the following problems that are common across all transport management ecosystems.
📌 Underutilization of vehicle capacity
📌 Lack of optimized route planning
📌 Unable to track the consignment
📌 Increased transportation costs due to delays.
Digitization of Transportation Management Systems
In essence, an effective and digitized TMS (Transport Management System) enables you to plan, carry out, and monitor your shipment activities. Such software is frequently modular, so you may purchase certain features separately based on your needs. Additionally, your ecosystem of tools can include-
📌 Several ERP modules
📌 Warehouse Management Systems (WMSs)
📌 Logistics Management Systems (LMS)
📌 Fleet management software
A TMS will enable you to view and utilize all of your assets on a single platform if you run your fleet. You can assign drivers and equipment, and manage dispatch and driver compensation, even if not all TMS providers have sophisticated fleet management features.
You may manage fuel usage and environmental impact, keep tabs on vehicle inspections and maintenance tasks, and even remotely operate the truck if you use specialized fleet management software. Sensors help you track and monitor all this information in real time.
An efficient TMS system has the following elements
📌 Route Analysis
📌 Tracking & tracing
📌 Event management
📌 Business intelligence & analytics.
Why should you adopt a TMS system for your operations?
By setting up a robust TMS we are assured of the following-
🚀 Improved planning & optimisation
🚀 Efficient and timely execution
🚀 Enhanced visibility and performance management
Adding multiple layers of tracking gives visibility. It helps you perform quick root cause analysis, in case of any mishaps. Efficient utilization of available resources helps companies plan and manage the system better. Route optimization and other attributes can help make better utilization of time. In large-scale businesses time is money.
