Transportation Management System

Transportation Management System from LATICRETE

We're Streamlining Shipping Processes!

In early June, 2020, LATICRETE announced the implementation of a Transportation Management System (TMS) to better serve our customers’ needs. TMS is a platform designed to streamline shipping processes and efficiencies while providing a substantial environmental benefit. The tool helps LATICRETE maximize freight, eliminate waste, and reduce  our carbon footprint.

Changes for our Distributors

With this new system and significant improvement in efficiencies, the following changes to our typical distribution operation must be implemented:

1. Modifications to orders placed will be limited due to improved order entry lead-time and the automated process for scheduling of deliveries. The ability to make changes is dependent on the process status of the order at the time of request, and beyond a certain point will not be possible.

2. With tremendous load and route optimization capabilities, maximization of combined shipments with orders from more than one customer will be scheduled on logical freight lanes. 

3. Orders received over full truckload limit (> 40,000 lbs.) will be split as appropriate and may be shipped in a manner to be combined and maximized by capacity and route without sacrifice to order lead-time.

 

How Does this Benefit You?

  • Improved freight costs through distribution efficiencies
  • Maximized and consolidated loads and deliveries
  • Faster and more accurate deliveries
  • Reduced shipping errors through focus on packing and loading
  • Improved communication of delivery status
