Transportation Execution
Stuff happens!
Let’s face it – no matter how perfect your transportation plan is, when the rubber meets the road, stuff happens. Orders change. Equipment breaks down. Bad weather closes roads. Any number of things can and do go wrong. That’s why execution capabilities have to be not only comprehensive and integrated, but also highly agile.

Being able to quickly react when events occur can be the difference between making or missing service deadlines, or even profit or loss.
That’s why RedPrairie’s optimization engine immediately incorporates the actual events and status changes that typically trip up plans as they occur, so planning and execution becomes an iterative process that quickly adapts to the inevitable changes. No need for manual intervention or settling for less than optimal results.
Transportation Management assigns carriers and tenders loads, schedules docks and pick-up appointments, and tracks shipment status – even across multi-leg journeys. It also creates and prints international shipment documentation, as well as parcel shipment manifests and labels. Built-in event management capabilities alert users to disruptions in shipment movements so adjustments can be made, alternatives planned, and customers notified.
So when stuff happens, as you know it will, it’s no big deal. You can still get optimal shipment results – just like you planned!
