Companies are enduring increasingly lengthened supply chains as much of their supply base and manufacturing operations have moved offshore. Global shipping means many firms must use multiple modes to transport products, and their global needs are increasing their rates. At the same time, clients are demanding tighter service requirements such as more frequent, smaller deliveries. As a result, firms are more dependent on transportation to make sure both materials and finished goods move through the supply chain effectively. Companies need a solution that manages their complex transportation movements to create the most optimal, cost-effective, executable transportation plan.
JDA Transportation Planning is designed to manage, optimize and execute the strategic, operational and tactical business processes that support the global movement of goods.
Used in conjunction with JDA’s Transportation Management suite, the solution integrates the many facets of today’s transportation and logistics departments, creating a web-enabled command and control center for domestic and international business operations. Our industry-leading, constraint-based optimization provides you with an unparalleled opportunity to optimize real logistics constraints, including carrier capacity, location throughput, hours of operation, traffic congestion and transit delays. In addition, our solution allows you to fully execute the optimized shipments using a range of techniques to communicate with your logistics service providers.
By enabling strategic, tactical and operational transportation management processes, you’ll be able to effectively and systematically deliver goods where they need to be on-time and under budget.
