Aware
TMS is a full featured system that can improve process automation, optimize
routing and increase visibility to help significantly reduce transportation
costs while improving customer service levels. The Aware TMS module is tightly
integrated with Aware WMS.
Accurate
and on-time deliveries, short order cycles and efficient and cost-effective
distribution of inventories are a business imperative in today’s dynamic
business environment. Aware TMS can help you manage the entire transportation
execution lifecycle by quickly responding to changing conditions whilst
minimizing manual shipping processes, lowering costs, facilitating prompt
deliveries and providing measurable improvements in customer service.
Optimizing
fulfillment of continuous order streams in the face of varying customer
demands, cost pressures and service window constraints is a challenge that
requires not only consideration for least-cost transportation mode, carrier and
routing, but also striking a balance with such variables as load consolidation,
pool points, zone skipping, cross-dock and merge-in transit. Aware TMS can help
you dynamically optimize your logistics operations to maximize transportation
efficiency and reduce cycle times and transportation costs.
Whether
you want to manage your own fleet, track on-board shipments or broker freight
from other carriers, the TMS module of Aware provides all the functionality
needed to accomplish these tasks. Sophisticated rating, billing and payment
processing capabilities are included. With the built-in load planning and
configuration tools, customer orders are manipulated to create optimal,
multi-modal shipment plans and loads that maximize capacity utilization,
pre-assign carriers, balance trailer weights, create least cost shipment plans
and review route and stop configurations. Dynamic routing allows you to
strategically combine shipments across several suppliers.
