Who in a Company Benefits from a TMS?

Written by FreightPOP | Aug 17, 2017

TMS’s (Transportation Management System) are built to help with shipping and logistics, but this software doesn’t only just benefit shippers. Utilizing a TMS can help members from all over your organization. From the CEO to a Sales Representative, a TMS can streamline everyone’s work and make your company more efficient and productive!

FreightPOP's TMS can help rid the headache that comes from dealing with shipping and logistics. FreightPOP offers an array of features meant to support almost every member of an organization.

 Check out some of the people who would benefit from a TMS:

The CEO

When you’re in charge of running an entire company, you want to allocate the least amount of money and labor without compromising results. Incorporating a TMS with your company allows you to spend less on transportation costs, and stop your employees from wasting time manually figuring out shipping and logistic issues that could otherwise be automated within a TMS.

The Shipper

Finding the best rates for a shipment can be a real pain! Without a TMS, you could spend hours calling up each carrier to find the best rates for your shipment. FreightPOP cuts that time down dramatically by comparing all your freight quotes in one screen. Plus, you can track your shipments, print shipping labels, and more all within this easy to use platform.
