If you’ve done a bid, purchase and implementation of a TMS you probably already know the drill; months of product demonstrations, vendor meetings, integration issues, customizations and on and on.

Welcome to the right way to do TMS.

PA TMS features:

Rate shopping to select the cheapest and/or fastest method of delivery between any combination of parcel and LTL methods. No more best guesses – implement sound business reasoning based on finance and operational needs and execute correctly…every time.
Centralized solution which eliminates the need to manage multiple carrier-provided systems
Back office integration with ERP systems including Microsoft GP, Dynamics, Navision, SAP, SAP B1, SAGE (MAS200/500 and others) and WMS (Accellos One Warehouse and 3PL Enterprise, High Jump). Realtime interface with ERP means that you can generate invoices which include accurate shipping totals at time of shipment rather than nightly batches or, worse yet, waiting for fully reconciled amounts.
Integration with CRM systems including Salesforce.com and Microsoft CRM
Provide immediate shipping quotes during the sales cycle for improved customer service and a more efficient sales process.
Industry leading configuration engine allows for complex discount or up-charge structures to run profit center shipping without wondering if you’re covering costs. Know every time if your “Free Shipping” is actually producing the bottom line you desire.
Ensure supplier and carrier compliance by automating compliance rules and chargebacks
Freight reconciliation reports allow for visibility into quoted versus charged amounts. Compare the level of service requested by the carrier against the actual delivery. Use the robust tools the Freight Audit and Payment companies use without the expense of engagement.
