Business Need

Client was looking for a warehouse and transportation management system for third-party logistics (3PL) companies. The system was required to handle workflow and issues related to shipments aggregation, inventory management and timely delivery to the destination point.

Client Situation

With business growth, the traditional supply chain and logistics process became complex and the client required a full-cycle system that would improve customer service and ensure on-time goods delivery and at minimum possible cost. The supply chain management system should be designed to make the transportation and logistics process transparent and simple. It should provide integration with 3rd party applications for order processing and inventory management, warehouse and transportation management.

The customer requested WeblineIndia, a RelyShore Software Development Company, to develop an easy-to-use app that would speed up cargo processing, provide real time information on freight tracking, remove paper work and replace bunches of paper documents with electronic data, and finally reduce mistakes caused by invalid/missing information. Sharing TMS and WMS information in real-time should be one of the key features for this supply chain management application.
