3Gtms, Inc., a global provider of Tier 1 transportation management software, and Crowley Logistics, a provider of logistics services around the world, has announced Crowley’s expanded use of the 3G-TM transportation management system (TMS) for its inland transportation customers.

The implementation of the 3Gtms solution is consistent with Crowley’s objective of increasing the velocity of customers’ supply chains and reducing total landed costs. Crowley is able to do that with 3Gtms’ Optimization and Execution tools, which enables its team to better manage the transportation challenges and unpredictable hurdles that are prevalent in today’s world. Additionally, customers, carriers and other partners benefit from easier integration through faster onboarding and lower costs.

A transportation management system is a program used to manage all aspects of transportation of goods, including planning and decision making; transportation execution; transport follow up, which typically involves following any physical or administrative actions; and measurement and reporting. A TMS typically integrates with an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software, or Warehouse Management System (WMS) and takes over where those systems step out. TMS can be used for tracking, planning and optimization purposes. When used properly customers can see efficiency cost reductions and improvements in order visibility.

“Our robust TMS gives Crowley unmatched power and adaptability as it serves the diverse transportation needs of customers and delivers more cost savings to them through optimization,” said Mitch Weseley, CEO of 3Gtms. “Crowley has a very professional team that is skilled at leveraging the full power of our TMS.”
