Curious about how 4flow iTMS can optimize your logistics networks?
Sustainable cost savings within complex supply chain networks
For globally operating businesses, transportation costs often account for more than half of supply chain costs. This means the potential for cost reduction is significant. With the integrated transportation management system (iTMS), 4flow optimizes end-to-end transportation processes in supply chain networks. By creating planning scenarios, the software solution identifies optimal transportation concepts and makes savings potential visible and achievable.
Unique approach for integrated transportation processes
4flow's unique software solution merges the basic functionalities of a TMS with the decisive advantages of planning and optimization. This fully integrated combination is the key to achieving efficient cost analysis and digital transformation of your supply chain processes.
The 4flow iTMS creates transparency across all transportation processes – from data governance to freight cost management to analytics – and integrates all relevant stakeholders on a single platform. Thus, all three levels of supply chain management – strategic, tactical and operational – are brought together in just one tool.
Because it can be integrated into any ERP system landscape and deployed as software-as-a-service (SaaS), the implementation of the iTMS is fast and scalable.
