Abstract:
On-Demand or SaaS (Software as a Service) has taken off in the Transportation Management System (TMS) market, and is fast becoming the dominant delivery model, offering a number of benefits, from lower upfront costs and rapid implementation to always staying current with the software and finding opportunities for collaboration with other shippers.
But now, the on-demand model is going even further, as leading shippers are leveraging the capabilities of select on-demand TMS providers to outsource a little or a lot of their actual transportation management function, enabling them to reduce costs and focus on core competencies.
In this outstanding Videocast from the Supply Chain Television Channel, you’ll hear a panel discussion about how three companies across a range of industry segments have approached this issue, learn why they went with on-demand TMS, their results, and how they have each differently outsourced some management functions while maintaining full strategic control of their transportation process.
