As the transportation operations of shippers and third-party logistics providers become more global and complex, so do their transportation management system (TMS) requirements. Multiple modes, multiple shipment legs, multiple countries, multiple currencies, multiple languages — in short, multi-everything! What are the main challenges shippers and 3PLs face in managing a multi-everything transportation operation? Are shippers and 3PLs taking a centralized or decentralized approach to managing their global transportation operations? What TMS capabilities are the most critical for success? How are companies managing the deployment process (Big Bang vs. country-by-country)? What are the main benefits companies are achieving?
Michael Knight, Product Manager at MercuryGate, answers those questions and more in this timely and informative episode. After watching, post a question or comment for Michael and keep the conversation going!
