Integrating Advanced Transportation Management With SAP

Tags:
erp

Overview Improvements in transportation process and technology-enablement provide the lowest hanging fruit available to most companies today to drive out supply chain costs and improve quality, consistency and customer satisfaction. With the widespread adoption of SAP's solution for transaction and order management, and the immaturity of SAP's logistics and transportation solutions, the marketplace is searching for a robust, best-of-breed transportation solution that can be easily integrated into an SAP environment. RedPrairie has delivered this solution, providing a world class Transportation Management System (TMS) that is powering some of the world's greatest logistics companies with tight, problem-free integration to SAP. Examples include Georgia-Pacific, Nestle, American Standard, and many others. This integration has been successfully achieved with the latest version of R/3, as well as with many older versions.
