Peggy Smedley and Arthur Axelrad, cofounder and CEO, Dispatch Science, talk about TMS (transportation management systems) and how they have evolved. He says in the logistics and supply chain world, there are companies that have a mission to deliver parcels and all of that requires coordination, so TMS software is that segment of business management that specializes in managing the transportation of goods.
They also discuss:
- How transportation management systems have evolved, highlighting the shift from manual processes to advanced software solutions.
- The role of AI (artificial intelligence) in the logistics industry and if it is accelerating certain processes and augmenting existing systems or replacing the core software itself.
- The skilled labor shortages, particularly among drivers, and the necessity for companies to invest in training and upskilling employees.
