To help shippers easily track shipments across transportation modes, Modalgistics and TransWorks have combined their transportation management systems to create a new Web-based application.
The Web-based application includes carrier tendering and selection, bill of lading creation and transmission, pick-up and delivery scheduling, equipment/yard management, and visibility of both inbound and outbound orders from suppliers and customers. Automated back-office processing, such as document management and auto-payment, also are employed to complete the loop on the entire shipment process.
