In today's fast-paced world, businesses are always looking for ways to improve their efficiency and productivity. One area that can often be overlooked is transport management.

Five Reasons Why Your Business Needs a TMS

1. Optimise administration procedures

Allotrac's cloud-based TMS eliminates unnecessary paperwork, optimizing your administrative procedures and saving you time and money. Integration with accounting software like MYOB and Xero automates invoicing and eliminates manual data entry, reducing administrative expenses, invoicing errors, and incorrect billing.

2. Real-time tracking

Whether you are using your own drivers or third-party carriers, Allotrac's TMS provides access to vehicle location and data, giving you and the customer the ability to track deliveries in real-time, providing complete visibility. This allows you to better manage jobs and allocate based on the driver's location and work hours. Your business can make adjustments promptly to develop a more efficient delivery schedule, ensuring your customers receive their delivery on time.

3. Improved customer experience

Allotrac's TMS provides the same visibility and service to your customers as you would using your own vehicles and drivers, or using subcontractors. You can provide customized delivery dockets that can be automatically sent to your clients on proof of pick-up and delivery.

4. Increased safety

Allotrac's TMS offers a pre-start checklist for optimised driver safety and the ability to control operational workflows to meet regulatory and organisational requirements. This helps reduce the risk of accidents, prevent delays, and ensure the safety of drivers and the public.

5. Increase cash flow

By shortening your business’s payment cycle and providing real-time updates on completed jobs, you can significantly improve your productivity when it comes to invoicing clients. Instant access to information allows for faster turnaround times, resulting in more efficient business operations.
