The definition of TMS is quite broad, and exactly which functionality is required will vary between clients according to the scope and complexity of their operations. Typically, a TMS encompasses capabilities like route planning and optimisation, freight audit and payment, carrier management, load building, order visibility, and reporting functions. This system is crucial for enhancing transportation efficiency, reducing costs, and improving real-time decision-making.
