Introduction

Jaguar needs ability to optimize truck domestic shipments:

  • create optimal loads, cost, routs, etc
  • automate tariffs, communication with carriers

Above features are normally present in TMS software.

To achieve that it was decided:

  • buy and use existing TMS solution (phase 1)
  • gradually add these features to CT2 (phase 2)

To complete phase 1 we need to implement:

Vendor evaluation

Currently there are 2 systems we are considering:

  • from Descartes
  • from Lean Logistics

Functionality Overview

In a nutshell:

  • shipment record will be created in CT2 and forwarded to TMS through EDI
  • in TMS Jag oper will run optimizations
  • TMS sens bids to carriers
  • one carrier accepts the bid and start moving shipments
  • carrier submits updates into TMS (example: actual pickup date)
  • update above will be forwarded into CT2 through EDI
