Using a TMS to Execute a Final Mile Strategy that Yields Desired Outcomes

Customer expectations have changed, and the rise of e-commerce contributed to an increased demand for the fastest, cheapest, and most pleasurable delivery experience.

Unfortunately, not all carriers were initially designed to work together, and a hodge-podge of disparate systems contributes to problems.

However, advancements in technology, including the connectivity and compatibility of systems promises to change the narrative and provide the final improvement needed to succeed in final mile logistics, up to and beyond the doorstep.

This white paper takes a closer look at the advanced capabilities, benefits, and effects offered and made possible through transportation management systems (TMS), including:

  • How e-commerce and final mile create positive, direct-to-consumer strategies
  • The Amazon-like final mile benefits through TMS use
  • The positive effect of collaboration in your final mile strategy
  • How using a TMS for all modes yields better results
  • How a unified TMS builds a harmonious, flexible, and responsive final mile strategy
