tms Logistics and Transportation System (Transportation Management System), the English abbreviation "TMS", is the basic operating software under the "supply chain" group of the enterprise.
The tms logistics and transportation system uses the waybill as the core to connect cargo owners, carriers, drivers, and consignees to achieve transparent management of the entire logistics and transportation process.
Traditional logistics and transportation information is opaque. Waybill distribution, vehicle scheduling, and transportation status can only be communicated by phone calls or text messages, which is inefficient and customer satisfaction is low. Conventional data can only be registered manually, which wastes a lot of manpower, material and financial resources. The use of the tms system has greatly solved various problems faced by enterprises. From a management perspective, the different reports generated by big data facilitate managers to analyze data in multiple dimensions and aspects, providing a basis for management decisions. Whether the vehicle arrives at the scene, whether it arrives on time, whether the delivery is on time, and where the vehicle has traveled, all these situations are presented in the system by checking all the information on the waybill. From the perspective of warehouse management, every day's waybills enter the system. The warehouse management can arrange the goods in advance according to the shipment volume of the waybills, and at the same time arrange forklift resources according to the volume, which improves efficiency and reduces the waste of resources. Abnormal feedback is timely. Traditional logistics and transportation can only report abnormalities by phone or other methods. With the system, all abnormal driver reports will be immediately entered into the system. Rapid abnormal response buys managers more time to solve unexpected problems.
