Description

Descartes Transportation Manager for Shippers is a comprehensive, multimodal TMS tailored for medium to high-volume shippers in North America and Europe, which enhances efficiency by automating processes related to purchase orders and shipment management, overseeing carrier contracts and routing guides, optimizing rates and modes (including private fleets), and facilitating load planning to maximize the use of resources. The system provides real-time insights and manages exceptions for all shipping modes, while features such as dynamic dock scheduling and yard management improve the throughput of facilities. Additionally, the platform simplifies invoice reconciliation through automated freight auditing and settlement, and offers extensive reporting, analytics, and CO₂ monitoring dashboards to help reduce costs and promote sustainability. With integrated carrier connectivity, onboarding capabilities, API/EDI messaging, modular integrations, and digital document management, it guarantees smooth collaboration with logistics partners. Overall, this advanced system not only improves operational efficiency but also fosters a more sustainable approach to transportation management.

Description

Suppliers, transporters, and multinational corporations can efficiently send their products with an unassailable delivery record that ensures the quickest path to payment. OpenPort's innovative smart contract platform leverages cutting-edge transport management technology to capture shipment events in real-time. In emerging markets, OpenPort has established a neutral and digitized network designed specifically for enterprise logistics. The Open Enterprise Logistics (OEL) model creates a fair marketplace for transport procurement, allowing transporters to publish their rates and collaborate directly with major shippers on tenders, applicable to both smart contracts and immediate ad-hoc transport needs. Transporters receive independent, data-backed performance ratings, enabling shippers to negotiate procurement terms directly while enjoying unmatched visibility and tracking capabilities. Additionally, our system features seamless integrations that allow delivery requests from the shipper’s ERP system to be processed in OpenPort’s OpenTM (transport manager) and efficiently consolidated and dispatched through the OpenDispatch tool, ensuring a streamlined logistics experience. This comprehensive approach revolutionizes the way logistics are managed, fostering transparency and efficiency throughout the supply chain.
