Description

ALMS is a distinctive hybrid system that combines Transportation Management System (TMS) and Warehouse Management System (WMS) functionalities to effectively oversee routes and shipments within a sophisticated lean manufacturing framework. When utilized alongside the Agillence Lean Logistics Optimizer (ALLO), it offers clients an integrated solution that enhances the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) continuous improvement process. This system facilitates collaboration among various users who hold different logistics roles, enabling them to coordinate route planning, load execution, and freight payments efficiently. Moreover, it grants comprehensive visibility across the enterprise, allowing stakeholders to monitor shared logistics data and address exceptions that span geographic, organizational, and temporal boundaries. Logistics management encompasses a wide range of activities over extended periods, including design, planning, execution, and payment processes. Additionally, it involves numerous entities with diverse objectives, such as plants, suppliers, carriers, cross-dock operators, logistics purchasing teams, logistics payment departments, as well as logistics service providers like network designers, logistics engineers, logistics managers, and dispatchers. This multi-faceted approach to logistics ensures that all participants can work toward their specific goals while contributing to the overall efficiency of the manufacturing network.
