As the industry recovers, keeping a “do more with less” mindset can enhance a company’s growth and help it prepare for the next downturn.
Ditat TMS carriers and Blue Yonder shippers can enjoy the benefits of a contract model within a spot market-like scenario thanks to their recent integration.
Ditat is planning to roll out its new user interface, which will improve the overall appearance of its TMS, making it more mobile-friendly.
Ditat helps Artur Express grow revenue by bringing its detention-monitoring and management capabilities into real time.
“Ditat allows us to see the full picture immediately, and if detailed information is required we can pull the required reports and dissect it further,” Silver Trucking’s Behaija Dzananovic said.
“Our growth and potential were being hindered by manual processes and limited visibility into workflows,” US Cargo Brokers founder Adam Konopko said. “After adopting Ditat’s TMS, US Cargo experienced a complete transformation.”
Ditat’s load planning board lets carriers view and manage all their load planning necessities in one place. It’s also a powerful recruiting tool.
This partnership has produced an extra layer of security for fleet owners with Ditat’s Secure Code. This feature, managed through Ditat’s TMS, requires a unique four-digit code to be entered for each purchase.
With Ditat, carriers do not need to have their own experts on staff or hire a third-party developer to set up an EDI connection. They just need to reach out to customer support, which will take it from there.
“When we first got started here, probably 75% of my day was answering emails and phone calls asking for updates. Now that all that is being sent directly from the drivers to the customers, it gives me a lot more time to handle planning and other issues that come up.”
Each new Ditat customer is paired with one support team member who stays with the account from the beginning and beyond.
If you aren’t using a platform with an open API, you may find data siloed between different programs that are unable to communicate with your TMS. Your business will ultimately become constrained by the limitations of your TMS. You won’t have the freedom to design a TMS to your company’s needs.
“Ditat has definitely helped us increase cash flow just by making the billing cycle efficient and allowing a one-stop place for our drivers to have the ability to get their dispatch, scan their bills of lading in and then it directly goes into the TMS and we can bill it out the same day.”
