# Network-Enabled Transportation Management System for Global Process Manufacturers

See how Elemica helps transportation and logistics leaders move beyond siloed carrier connections and fragmented systems to a unified, network-enabled approach. The solution sheet explains how a global, mode-neutral TMS connects planning, execution, and real-time visibility directly into your ERP and every business partner, so teams can act on exceptions immediately instead of stitching together disconnected tools across modes and regions.

#### This solution sheet breaks the platform into three core areas:

- **Transportation cost efficiency,** where load consolidation, optimization, and automated bin-packing are combined with access to over 1,000 parcel and heavy freight carriers, strategic sourcing tools, and routing optimization across road, rail, ocean, air, and parcel.
- **Customer service and cost-to-serve,** where predictive ETAs, time slot management, and management-by-exception give teams full visibility into shipments while rule-based notifications and business intelligence keep stakeholders informed and costs under control.
- **IT and data overhead,** where ERP-integrated processes, supplier portal connectivity, and a unified platform for order, execution, and visibility eliminate data silos and reduce manual reconciliation work.

Elemica Freight Audit extends the platform with automated invoice validation, discrepancy resolution, threshold-based approvals, and detailed cost assignment at the order level, giving finance and logistics teams end-to-end financial traceability. Reported outcomes include an 11% reduction in cost to serve within the first year, as echoed by a Global Director of Logistics & Transportation at a leading tire manufacturer.
