Case Study: Leading Chemical Manufacturing Company achieves cost savings and transportation visibility with Transplace TMS

Leading Chemical Manufacturing Company - Customer Case Study

A leading chemical manufacturing and distribution company needed greater control and visibility across more than 140 North American locations, with shipments spanning inbound, outbound, direct, and stock transfer moves. To centralize transportation operations across business units, the company turned to Transplace and its Transportation Management System (TMS).

Transplace implemented a TMS-based solution that automated transportation management, added a carrier portal for non-EDI carriers, improved invoice processing, and provided real-time shipment visibility and analytics. The results included centralized operations, better customer service, stronger carrier accountability, and significant cost savings, including about $500,000 in annual savings from reverse auctions and another $500,000 from freight payment automation.
