Businesses are like naval ships battling the rough winds and waters of a hurricane. In an area of uncertainty, the forces of change blow from every direction. Trade wars, pandemics, extreme weather and other unexpected risks have unbuttoned old business models, and businesses must be ready to protect against volatility in demand and supply.

TMS software simplifies complex logistics processes and helps companies reduce transportation spending by optimizing freight shipments across multiple carriers and different transport modes (ocean, air, road, rail). The systems also help companies reduce their carbon footprint, improve on-time delivery, and provide visibility of goods in transit.

Companies doing business across borders face significant compliance costs and risks due to complex and ever-changing trade regulations. Global trade management (GTM) software helps companies automate international trade management processes to mitigate risks, ensure global trade compliance, and minimize the costs of international business in a volatile world economy. Companies using GTM solutions can achieve millions of dollars in duty savings, avoid customs delays and fines, protect their corporate reputation, and gain a competitive advantage, especially when they integrate global trade with end-to-end supply chain operations.
