Atlanta — March 5, 2024 —In today's volatile market, even a minor disruption can cripple your supply chain. IntelliTrans, a leader in global multimodal transportation management solutions, discusses the pivotal role of transportation management systems in bolstering supply chain resilience through comprehensive risk management strategies centralized around a single point of control. A centralized approach enables businesses to proactively identify and mitigate risks across all transportation modes, thereby enhancing overall operational stability and efficiency.
Brian Cupp, Director of Operations at IntelliTrans, with over 20 years of experience in supply chain optimization, states, "Holistic transportation risk management, facilitated by a centralized system, empowers companies to address risks across diverse supply chain elements, including various transportation modes. The IntelliTrans TMS exemplifies this approach, granting clients comprehensive insight into inventory movements across multiple transportation modes and warehouses. Having visibility ensures precise tracking of product locations throughout the transportation process and enables proactive inventory management to mitigate the risk of stockouts."
The IntelliTrans Transportation Management System (TMS) seamlessly integrates and unifies data from suppliers, carriers, and logistics partners. This integration enables organizations to analyze and assess different transportation modes comprehensively, facilitating the identification of patterns and potential risks.
