Eliminating fragmentation with a standard application programming interface (API)

When it comes to logistics scheduling, collaboration is crucial. The biggest challenge faced by companies and their logistics providers is fragmented data architecture, and yet, far too many of them rely on disjointed platforms to manage this task. In many cases, the process is handled manually, making scheduling more time-consuming, and vulnerable to human error.

Along with other industry leaders, e2open serves as a voting member of the Scheduling Standards Consortium, which aims to reduce or eliminate the fragmentation of ecosystems in the supply chain. To this end, the e2open Transportation Management System includes a standard appointment scheduling API that provides the most up-to-date information and allows carriers to schedule appointments and communicate in real time with other stakeholders. The e2open TMS also significantly improves data sharing, creating greater efficiencies and decision-making across the supply chain.

Read our solution brief to learn how e2open TMS helps ensure alignment and transparency between all appointment stakeholders.
