In the complex world of freight, having a TMS that understands and supports the planner's role is not just a luxury—it's a necessity. With Trifecta TMS, your planners are better equipped to handle their tasks, ensuring that every job is optimised for success.
In the freight industry, efficient planning is crucial to maintaining and improving margins. A job that is poorly planned will always remain suboptimal, affecting the overall profitability. At Trifecta TMS, we recognise the critical role planners play in the success of freight operations, which is why we have designed our system to enhance their capabilities, allowing them to view and manage information in the most timely and efficient manner.
Dynamic and Personalised Views
One of the standout features of Trifecta TMS is our highly dynamic and configurable interface. Unlike other systems that simply remember column settings, our TMS stores the grouping, sorting, totalling, and filtering preferences for each user, every time they work on a screen. This means that every planner can have a personalised view that fits their unique workflow, significantly improving their efficiency and effectiveness.
Custom Route Codes and Task Prioritisation
Our system offers unparalleled flexibility with custom route codes for any origin or destination, including specific sites. This feature is particularly useful for tasks with specific delivery windows, allowing planners to prioritise these jobs and ensure timely delivery. Whether planners are responsible for specific laneways or zones, they can quickly configure the system to refine job data and present only the necessary information to make optimal decisions.
Seamless Integration with WMS Systems
For those using Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), Trifecta TMS can consume orders, display pick confirmations delivered via EDI or our APIs and return transport statuses to your WMS. This seamless integration ensures that planners have all the information they need in one place, reducing the need for manual data entry and minimising the risk of errors.
Comprehensive Freight and Fleet Management
Our freight module provides planners with a clear view of inbound freight, and our load building feature allows them to build loads efficiently and ensure utility before dispatch. The fully configurable fleet view keeps all team members informed about the day's progress, facilitating better coordination and communication. Creating Pick Ups, splitting orders, or simply direct manifesting is seamless. More complex task such as cross docking, transferring to third party depots and manging trailer swaps is made a simple and intuitive as possible.
Enhanced Container Management
Visibility is further enhanced with our Container module, which includes a status field showing whether a container is inbound, on hold, available, on rail to an inland port, in transit, unpacked, etc. This feature simplifies the task of managing containers, making it intuitive and straightforward for planners to ensure everything runs smoothly.
Trifecta TMS offers deep integrations, displaying port status, VBS time, weight, size, X-ray requirements, box type, and more. These integrations significantly reduce the workload for planners and minimise the chances of data entry mistakes, allowing for a more streamlined and accurate planning process.
Intuitive Drag and Drop Interface
Our fully visual drag and drop planner makes training new staff a breeze, often taking just a few minutes. Planners love using our system because it is intuitive and user-friendly, enabling them to focus on making better decisions faster.
Specialised Freight Management
For specialised freight, Trifecta TMS provides all the standard features plus the ability to create bulk contracts and draw them down over time. This ensures that planners, management, and customers have full visibility on progress and timelines. Projects can group related freight together, ensuring that no detail is missed, such as an extra flat deck or pilot.
Conclusion: Better Decisions, Improved Outcomes
Trifecta TMS is designed to empower planners to make better decisions faster. By reducing administrative costs, improving customer outcomes and DIFOT (Delivery In Full, On Time), and ultimately enhancing your bottom line, our TMS is the optimal choice for any freight operation looking to maximise efficiency and profitability.
