Managing less-than-truckload (LTL) shipments can be a complex task for businesses moving heavy volume. With multiple carrier contracts, varying freight classes, and ever-changing dynamic LTL rates, it's crucial to have a reliable transportation management system (TMS) in place. TLI's ViewPoint TMS offers a comprehensive solution that simplifies LTL rating, optimizes shipment processes, and provides API tracking updates, all while mitigating reclasses. Let's delve into why ViewPoint TMS is the ideal choice for businesses seeking streamlined LTL logistics solutions.
One of the significant advantages of ViewPoint TMS is its ability to automatically retrieve the proper National Motor Freight Classification (NMFC) code for each item being shipped. By automating this process, the TMS ensures that the freight is correctly classified, significantly reducing the chances of reclassification by carriers. Reclassifications can lead to unexpected cost increases and delays in transit. By mitigating reclasses, businesses can avoid unnecessary expenses and maintain consistency in their shipping operations.
Tired of juggling multiple webpages? Worried about keying in the wrong data you are quickly copying on the 17th BOL created today? ViewPoint TMS offers a density calculator that works seamlessly within the system. Calculating the density of LTL shipments is crucial for accurate rating and optimal space utilization. The built-in density calculator eliminates the need for manual calculations, ensuring precise measurements and accurate freight charges. This feature not only saves time but also reduces the risk of errors in shipment dimensions and weight, leading to more accurate pricing and improved customer satisfaction.
Keeping track of LTL shipments is essential for both businesses and their customers. ViewPoint TMS integrates with carriers' application programming interfaces (APIs), enabling real-time tracking of shipments. With up-to-date information on the location and status of each LTL load, businesses can proactively manage their logistics, respond to customer inquiries promptly, and identify any potential issues before they escalate. This level of visibility ensures transparency, enhances customer satisfaction, and instills confidence in the shipping process. Your purchasing department can have total control & visibility of inbound raw material, while knowing its exact cost & delivery date.
Efficient LTL rating is crucial for cost-effective shipping decisions. ViewPoint TMS provides access to a range of LTL rating calculators, allowing businesses to compare rates from multiple carriers without having to enter the shipment for quoting details multiple times. By obtaining real-time quotes and comparing service offerings, businesses can make informed decisions based on factors such as cost, transit time, and reliability. The availability of multiple LTL carrier quotes being retrieved during BOL creation ensures you are always using the least cost carrier provider, all within the TMS ViewPoint. The LTL rating engine simplifies the process of finding the most competitive LTL rates, resulting in significant cost savings and improved overall logistics efficiency.
ViewPoint TMS is a versatile solution that caters to the needs of shippers, whether they are routing just one shipment or handling a hundred shipments per day. Regardless of the scale of your LTL shipping operations, ViewPoint TMS offers a user-friendly interface and intuitive functionalities that simplify the entire process. Whether you are a small business looking to streamline your logistics or a large enterprise seeking to optimize complex shipping networks, ViewPoint TMS is recommended for all LTL shippers. Its scalability and flexibility make it a valuable asset for businesses of all sizes, empowering them to achieve greater efficiency, cost savings, and customer satisfaction in their LTL shipping endeavors.
