Enhanced TMS: Manhattan Associates Inc.
has updated its transportation management
system (TMS) to help customers manage their
transportation operations more efficiently in
a capacity-constrained and increasingly regulated environment. The cloud-based solution
focuses on enriching carrier collaboration and
connectivity, and improving in-transit visibility, including management of temperature
tracking requirements. Manhattan says its
TMS 2018 also enhances driver safety and
adds several user experience improvements.
The combination of a driver shortage,
decreased timelines, and increased regulations during a period of economic expansion
and increased volume is stressing transportation industry resources. Manhattan has
partnered with FreightRover, a digital freight
marketplace, to give shippers the ability to
find capacity matches for their specific freight
needs. Manhattan TMS users can now utilize FreightRover’s Digital Freight Matching
platform to locate and contract with dependable, cost-effective alternative carriers; reduce
turndown rates; track freight; and expedite
payment.
Manhattan has also improved its TMS
Mobile application to increase carrier collaboration, connectivity, and visibility. The mobile
app has been updated to include geofencing
functionality that automates and simplifies the
shipment tracking process, improves driver
safety, and increases compliance. (Manhattan
