IntelliTrans TMS Software FAQs

What is a TMS (Transportation Management System)?

A TMS is a software-based automation tool supply chain leaders use to run their shipping operations. More than that, a TMS can be a powerful management tool that provides insights into day-to-day operational performance, as well as into the performance of third-party carriers who transport products to their destinations. With a TMS, supply chain leaders can identify and mitigate real-time shipment issues, keep customers informed of delivery timing, and track historical performance of key KPIs in order to develop plans to further optimize operations.

How Does a Transportation Management System Work?

Transportation management systems aggregate data from a variety of sources to provide shippers with a comprehensive view of real-time operational status. The tool also provides key functionality to control operations, including assigning loads to carriers, scheduling pick-ups and deliveries, and auditing and paying approved invoices. Finally, the tool collects data on all operations and provides users with analytics and reports on key performance factors.

Who Uses a Transportation Management System?
Companies that ship products to customers using trucks, rail, barge, ships, or intermodal options should consider using a TMS. The right TMS helps companies deliver cost-effective, efficient, and responsive experiences for their customers, with tools in place to help their employees ensure a smooth customer experience. A TMS also provides valuable assistance in reviewing and paying shipping invoices, helping improve employee productivity and satisfaction while protecting against overpayments.
What Are the Benefits of a Transportation Management System?
There are many benefits tied to operating a TMS to manage your supply chain operation. Some of the most significant include improved customer satisfaction, reduced shipping expenses, greater operational efficiency, reduced carbon footprint, lower operational risk, and higher employee productivity and satisfaction.
What Are Essential Features in a Transportation Management System?

A Transportation Management System (TMS) should have the following essential features: data integration and aggregation across multiple systems and feeds; an easy-to-use interface and dashboard; the capability to identify the best carrier for a specific lane and book a shipment with them immediately; the ability to track single shipments across multiple modes of transportation; the capacity to assign loads and schedule pick-up and delivery; and the capability to audit and process invoices for payment.

How do Organizations Implement Transportation Management Systems?
To implement a TMS, IntelliTrans works closely with your IT organization to identify all existing systems and feeds that will need to be incorporated into the new TMS tool, as well as with the supply chain organization to ensure that all necessary visibility and functionality are incorporated into the custom installation. Customers are able to continue operating a variety of supply chain tools as needed, as these tools feed into the overall TMS tool – thus helping ensure minimal disruption during the implementation process.
