Logistar TMS – Transport Management System is a transport operations management system. It limits the risks of delay or delivery failure by respecting customer and organizational constraints and rules.
When connected to a WMS, Logistar TMS can provide real time picking and loading statuses for each order or each delivery route. A monitoring function provides follow-up of load planning progress in real time.
Delivery statuses are tracked, from the creation of the transport order to the confirmation of the delivery. Thanks to on-board communication equipment, the monitoring of activities and events is precise (vehicles geographically located in real time and delivery notes archived via internet). Customers and transport operations can monitor transport orders in real time; transport events are transmitted to the transport center for pro-active response and the delivery process is made more reliable.
To efficiently analyze your operations, Logistar TMS provides you with reports and customized performance measures. All transport data are transmitted to a central database and operations can define the most pertinent indicators to assess the performance of the operation according to appropriate criteria; to create reports on profitability, per customer or sector of delivery; to measure the performance of subcontractors and in-house resources: e.g. punctuality rate. Logistar TMS provides efficient and effective assistance when making tactical transport decisions.

Logistar TMS provides efficient and effective assistance when making tactical transport decisions, as it embeds an integrated query tool, a service quality follow-up, budget monitoring, carbon footprint balance and different management dashboards.
Logistar e-Tracing is an Order Tracing Module. It traces all orders (arrival, execution, departure) and enables the customer to monitor their product’s distribution to customer through transport events. Sales administrative can, at any time, inform the customer of the status of their order and, on-demand, provide proof of delivery information.
Logistar e-Tracking is a module dedicated to Product Traceability throughout the Supply Chain, from the warehouse to the customer, enabling you to comply with European Standards. E.g. in a logistic chain of 8 sites and 250 delivery points, product recall plan carried out in less than 2 hours.
A web portal for transport providers, Logistar e-Booking is a data exchange platform for EDI transactions. It simplifies and speeds up communication between logistics actors when planning for resources thanks to: order entry and its ability to organize pickups; delivery slots booking and departure-arrival follow-up; KPI monitoring and freight exchange providing secure access to all the actors involved in the transport activity.
Logistar Optimization focuses on optimizing all transport flows thanks to the integration of constraints and transport plans. It considers all transport parameters: orders, assets, legal constraints, shipment constraints (products or resources), to bring about the best distribution approach for the goods being shipped. It has the capacity to manage complex transport operations: cross docks and regional delivery warehouses.
The functions of Logistar Mobility allow it to provide a solution that is less costly than satellite tracking: utilizes GSM, mobile phone and WiFi technologies. Logistar Mobility is more flexible in terms of use and less costly in terms of equipment, subscriptions and data transfer. It helps the driver to integrate load carriers to load, to enter GPS coordinates of the points to visit and to make decisions in case of errors. Logistar Mobility ensures control of deliveries and to anticipate possible issues: loading control, unloaded units control by scan, deviations, traceability and reporting of operations.
As a database for all transportation information, Logistar TMS Datawarehouse allows the customer to leverage existing requests and generate customized requests.
