Transport Management · Manufacturing to Retail

One TMS for
Material & Goods Delivery.

A single TMS that connects factories, warehouses, carriers and stores. Designed for two core realities: customers picking up goods by themselves and your team managing a complex carrier network to deliver on time, with full cost and status visibility.

Delivery Scenarios

From Factory Gate to Retail Shelf

The TMS is built around two main scenarios and their variations: customers picking up goods themselves, and your organization managing carriers to deliver to plants, DCs, stores or end-customers.

Customer Self Pick-up

Customers, dealers or contractors send their own trucks to collect materials or goods from your plant or DC.

  • • Pre-booked pick-up slots
  • • Vehicle & driver registration
  • • Real-time loading status & ePOD

Managed Delivery (Carrier Network)

Your team plans and dispatches shipments through multiple carriers, with full visibility of cost, SLA and performance.

  • • Carrier assignment rules
  • • Cost-per-trip & route comparison
  • • Carrier scorecard & ranking

Interplant & Hub Transfer

Planned replenishment between plants, hubs and DCs with visibility on inbound and outbound material flow.

  • • Planned vs. actual volume
  • • Multi-leg & backhaul trips
  • • Yard & dock utilization

Retail Replenishment & Last Mile

From DC to store, branch or end-customer with strict time windows and service-level expectations.

  • • Route & trip optimization
  • • Multi-drop & milk-run planning
  • • Store-level delivery KPI

Shipment Planning

From Order to Shipment in One Board

End-to-end planning flow: Orders → Shipments → Trucks → Slots. Integrated with your WMS and ERP to plan based on real inventory, truck capacity and loading capacity per dock.

Drag & Drop Shipment Planning

Planners can group, split and assign orders into shipments, match with the right truck type and carrier, and confirm loading slots — in a single screen connected to WMS and Truck Queue systems.

  • Unified view: See self pick-up and managed delivery in one board, filterable by plant, DC, store, customer, scenario and date.
  • WMS integration: Check available stock, pallet count and loading sequence directly from WMS before confirming the plan.
  • Capacity-aware planning: Optimize weight, cube and number of stops to reduce transport cost and improve truck utilization.
  • Scenario rules: Different business rules for factory outbound, interplant and retail last-mile, configured but managed in one engine.

Carriers & Cost

Shipment Cost Management & Carrier Evaluation

Choose the right carrier for every shipment, control cost per kilometer or ton, and monitor performance across your carrier network — all in one place.

Carrier Performance & Decision Support

TMS helps you manage multiple carriers with transparent rules and data-driven evaluation — so you can route shipments to the best partner based on SLA, cost and service quality.

  • Contract & rate management: Maintain lane-based rates (per km, per ton, per trip) and automatically calculate expected cost for each shipment.
  • Planned vs. actual cost: Compare planned freight cost with actual invoice, highlight variance and potential overcharge.
  • Carrier scorecard: On-time %, damage claims, cancellation rate, late arrival, service incident — calculated per carrier and lane.
  • Tender & allocation rules: Auto-assign carrier based on cost, performance, capacity and business rules.

Tracking & KPI

Real-Time Shipment Tracking with GEONEX

Control-tower visibility over every shipment — materials and finished goods — powered by TMS events, GPS tracking via GEONEX and WMS / ERP data. See where your trucks are, when they will arrive, and how your carrier network is performing.

GEONEX GPS Integration & Live ETA

The TMS integrates with GEONEX to receive real-time GPS positions, route history and driver behavior. ETA is recalculated continuously and late shipments are highlighted for proactive action by operations and customer service teams.

  • Live map & list view: Track every shipment by region, customer, carrier, material type or channel — in map and tabular views.
  • ETA prediction: Dynamic ETA combining distance, typical speed, traffic and stop sequence from GEONEX feeds.
  • Late shipment heatmap: Color-coded late shipments and risk zones by plant, region, carrier and scenario (self pick-up vs managed delivery).
  • Delivery KPI: On-time delivery, queue time, loading time, turnaround time and carrier performance — ready for export to management reports.

Benefits · Manufacturing

Optimize Material Flow from Production to Customer

Designed for factories and plants that need tight control over raw materials, semi-finished and finished goods — with multiple silos, lines and loading areas.

Operational Benefits

  • Stable production planning: Align transport capacity with production plan so finished goods do not accumulate at yard, and lines never stop waiting for raw materials.
  • Less congestion at loading area: Truck queue and slot management reduce bottlenecks at peak hours and on high-volume days.
  • Better use of limited docks: Capacity view per dock/time window ensures you never over-book and avoids overtime loading.
  • Accurate weighing & compliance: Truck scale integration ensures correct net weight and compliance with road regulations.

Business & Financial Benefits

Average Turnaround Time
-25%
Faster truck cycle at plant
Overtime Loading
-30%
Better slot & shift planning

By connecting TMS with production and WMS, your plant can maintain a stable outbound flow, reduce unplanned overtime and support higher throughput without expanding physical capacity.

Benefits · Retail & Distribution

Right Stock, Right Store, Right Time

For retail chains and distributors, the TMS ensures reliable replenishment cycles, stable shelf availability and full visibility for store managers and CS teams.

Service & Customer Experience

  • Reliable store replenishment: Route planning, fixed-cycle and dynamic trips protect shelf availability and prevent stock-outs.
  • Clear delivery promise: ETA and status allow stores and CS team to answer customers confidently about delivery time.
  • Flexible self pick-up option: Support dealers or contractors who want to pick up themselves while still tracking performance and lead time.
  • Unified view of channels: DC → Store, cross-dock and direct-to-customer flows in one dashboard.
