| | OCTOBER 20196CIOReviewThe Transportation Management System (TMS) market continues to grow at an impressive rate. The main reason is the robust ROI attributed to a TMS. Companies buy a TMS to achieve freight savings, which can be attributed to simulation and network design, load consolidation and lower cost mode selections, and multi-stop route optimization.TMS is one of the first supply chain applications to pave its way into the cloud. This comes as a boon to stakeholders in the vertical where there is a continuous shift from being an on-premise/installed solution to a web-based model--making it easier for shippers, carriers, to access important information from the web at any time.Cloud TMS also makes senses because this eliminates upfront expenditures related to software and hardware, allowing businesses of any size to gain access to the technology. Transportation operations teams can make smarter decisions by leveraging actionable reports and dashboards within a TMS housed in the cloud. In the past, it was almost impossible for small or even mid-sized freight shipping firms to invest in a transportation management system, as the cost always exceeded their budget. Luckily, times have changed. Fast forward to 2019, and recent advancements in technology made TMS much more affordable and more comfortable to obtain. This is mostly due to the cloud and has helped shippers all across the globe. Cloud-based transportation management systems are being adopted at faster rates than ever before. This special edition of CIOReview focuses on the latest transport management solutions prevailing in the market.Let us know your thoughts.EditorialThe Much Needed ChangeCopyright © 2019 ValleyMedia, Inc.
