Move Management

Streamline shipment and routing processes

With the introduction of increasingly complex scenarios of delivery in order to meet the high expectations of today’s consumer, companies can easily lose sight of efficiency and return on investment opportunities within their operations.

Improving transportation processes, and the integration of those activities into the broader supply chain flow, has the opportunity to impact your bottom line…you just need help to discover where those opportunities lie.

RedPrairie’s advanced Transportation Management Solution (TMS) functionality can help you discover where optimization opportunities can be realized, and automate those activities for you.

The system can evaluate all orders within your overall network across all plants / divisions to identify routing /scheduling and consolidation synergies. It can take into account sophisticated optimization strategies that incorporate pooling, zone skipping, and inter-modal delivery, including combinations of private fleet resources and contracted carrier fleets.

It automatically calculates the most cost effective way to handle loads / shipments taking all aspects into consideration, such as origin / destination points, required delivery dates and times, best carrier and mode based on contracts, capacity and freight costs. It also automates the carrier interaction activities for tendering, status updates and freight settlement.

The breadth of RedPrairie TMS functionality includes:

Carrier capacity / commitment management
Complex, multi-mode, multi-stop scenarios
Zone skip capability
Dynamic routing support
Dock door scheduling
Yard management
Real-time in-transit visibility
Continual optimization and planning

With RedPrairie Transportation Management, handling complex delivery scenarios becomes routine – and routinely efficient.
