Technology Driven Freight Management
Scalable Shipping Starts With Software
TLI provides Technology-Driven Freight Management by offering shippers access to a TMS called Viewpoint. Shippers often face challenges such as a lack of supply chain visibility and rising logistics costs, which can hinder their expansion. To overcome these obstacles and pave the way for scalability, it is crucial to adopt cutting-edge shipping software. Finding the appropriate shipping software for small businesses is imperative.
Shipping Software
ViewPoint, TLI's specialized Transportation Management System (TMS), is designed specifically for shippers, offering a user-friendly online portal that streamlines routing and optimizes the supply chain for small businesses. This robust shipping software consolidates carriers, rates, transportation modes, document imaging, and services within a unified platform.
Integrating seamlessly with Microsoft PowerBI, ViewPoint enhances operational efficiencies and eliminates manual recreations by facilitating seamless order integration with ERP. This results in a streamlined process for rating, booking, and tendering, making it a valuable asset for shippers.
