Aware™
Freight Management System (FMS) is a comprehensive multi-modal logistics
solution for efficiently managing the complex transport operations, from
loading and manifest creation through to the delivery sequences. Aware™ FMS
addresses all the requirements of air, sea and land freight operations related
to import, export and trans-shipment as well as road transport pickup and
dispatch operations. These include order, customer and tariff management, job
costing, document preparation, and on-line shipment tracking/tracing with
complete audit trace for delivery confirmation. Aware™ FMS is fully integrated
with Aware™ WMS and Aware™ Transportation Management System, allowing efficient
scheduling and alignment of warehousing operations with planned transport
vehicle movements, thereby ensuring that asset and capacity utilization is
maximized.
Aware
FMS provides high visibility into orders with instant real-time information
available at your fingertips, including order and pricing details, service
options, shipment tracking by order number, carrier, date and customer and
proof of delivery. The advanced look-up facilities allow you to promptly
respond to customer queries with accurate information and specific details,
ensuring high levels of service and customer satisfaction. Moreover, by
automatically sending ASNs to consignees regarding order shipment processing
and tracking information, you can eliminate a substantial number of shipment
tracking inquiries, improving staff productivity.
A
comprehensive set of customizable management reports and analysis capability is
also included in the system. These include daily, monthly and yearly
transaction reports related to profit, expense, and revenue, job (number, date,
arrival, department, etc.) and quotation listing, trans-shipment manifest
reports and import/export listing, status reports for DO, Invoice and BL, and a
host of other useful operational reports. Optional performance and cost
analytics business intelligence data models are also available for monitoring
