Agile TMS
Are your carrier selections really cost effective?
The cost of transportation in most company’s average
7%-9% of revenues. That’s a cost that needs to be well managed. Agile
TMS is
a family of shipping and warehousing solutions that allow you to reduce
transportation costs and make your warehouse more efficient. Whether
it’s a single carrier on a
lone PC or hundreds of shipping stations in multiple locations, our
innovative product family has the right solutions for your company’s
needs.
Agile TMS can handle all of the various carriers you choose to engage.
The system has built in compliance for most popular carriers and can
be programmed to handle local, regional, LTL and custom carriers.
In addition to rating shipments and producing carrier required documents,
labels and revenue files, Agile TMS can be expanded to handle complex
shipping requirements. TMS can cost compare your shipments based on
the net rate. TMS can provide order consolidation to ensure the best
delivery cost to a delivery point (multiple orders/same destination).
TMS can be configured for carrier selection based on delivery date
and even time of day.
Agile TMS can also be configured to implement business rules as
warehouse processes occur. This eliminates operator errors and misrouting
which ultimately cost you money.
Add-on modules allow for order processing enhancements
to improve efficiency:
- Plan order picking sequences for faster work
flow and timely loading.
- Verify order contents at checking stations.
- Compile container
contents at packing stations.
- Track serial and lot numbers.
- Create vendor required UCC 128 compliance
labels.
- Gather EDI data for ASN notices.
Agile’s TMS solutions may also be integrated
with in-motion systems and conveyors.
Agile TMS can be deployed across a single or multiple facilities
with an unlimited number of workstations. Our open database structure
allows for easy connectivity to ERP, WMS or virtually any business
application using popular tools like ODBC, TCP/IP Sockets, XML, FTP
and many more.
Agile TMS Enterprise extends functionality across
your entire organization with the added benefit of being deployed
as an enterprise solution. TMS Enterprise can run across multiple
facilities from a central server. This server can then be accessed
from Agile’s browser based
user interface to perform rating, routing and business rule requests.
TMS Enterprise can also run as an API where the application runs in
the background and receives queries from other business applications.
