What is a TMS?
A TMS plans and tracks transport: trips, shipments and track-and-trace. Below you can read what it does and how it works together with ERP and WMS.
A TMS (Transport Management System) plans and tracks transport: trips, shipments, carriers and track-and-trace. It ensures the right goods reach the right place on time. A TMS connection shares shipment statuses with customers and links it to ERP and WMS.
Planning and tracking transport
A TMS (Transport Management System) supports everything around transport: planning trips, assigning shipments to carriers, determining the route and tracking delivery with track-and-trace. It ensures the right goods reach the right place on time.
For logistics service providers and shippers, the TMS is the linchpin of transport planning, often alongside a WMS for the warehouse.
Connecting the TMS
A TMS rarely stands on its own. With a connection you share shipment statuses and track-and-trace automatically with your customers via a portal, and you exchange transport orders with ERP, WMS and carriers. So everyone sees the same, current state of affairs.
