Transporeon, a Trimble company, has announced the launch of the Transporeon Integrated App Program (TIAP). TIAP is an application integration framework that ensures interoperability between Transporeon’s transportation management platform and transport management systems (TMS) used by carriers, enabling joint customers to benefit from enhanced efficiency and operational improvements.
By integrating directly with carriers’ TMS, TIAP simplifies and streamlines data integration and workflow collaboration for Transporeon’s carrier and logistics service provider customers.
TIAP Benefits
With TIAP, the carrier TMS seamlessly integrates with Transporeon’s transportation management platform, eliminating the need for multiple projects and IT involvement. With automated synchronisation and live updates, carriers can operate more efficiently by reducing costs and complexity associated with manual, duplicative work.
Among the key benefits TIAP provides to carriers:
- Importing transport details from Transporeon into the in-house TMS and accepting or declining those transports back to the Transporeon platform.
- Automating tracking by export status, position updates, ETA and license plate numbers to Transporeon.
- Booking and managing all time slots directly from the in-house TMS system into Transporeon.
“Individual integrations for carriers can often be costly, time-consuming and often require IT resources that are unavailable,” said Philipp Pfister, Sector Vice President of Transporeon. “With TIAP, the integration happens at the carrier-TMS provider level instead. Once that is completed and a carrier wants to integrate, most of the work is already done, making the final steps simple and requiring minimal effort.”
