Efficiently plan mobility resources and enhance operational performance.
The eTSM application is an advanced digital solution designed to optimize the management and scheduling of truck loading and unloading operations within distribution centers. By using eTSM, companies can gain early visibility into scheduled volumes for upcoming periods, enabling more efficient resource planning and smoother operations. This visibility allows for the adjustment of operational times based on workforce needs, location specifics, cargo characteristics, and transport modes—covering both inbound and outbound processes.
Initially developed for slot management, eTSM has evolved into a control tower solution, providing selective visibility across the supply chain in ways that traditional IT systems cannot. It can be used by one or multiple distribution centers, streamlining both inbound and outbound logistics.
The eTSM application is designed for manufacturing, import/distribution, and retail companies that operate at least one warehouse and want to optimize their operations and resource utilization. It is also beneficial for high-traffic stores, allowing them to set a Cut-Off Time (CoT), which enables advance scheduling of loading and unloading activities.
With eTSM, companies can start each day with a clear overview of the number of vehicles expected for loading/unloading, the number of pallets, and other key details. The benefits extend beyond the client company to its suppliers as well, significantly reducing long waiting times for unloading.
The implementation of the eTSM application is straightforward, requiring minimal IT resources (computer, phone, internet). It ensures transparency and fast information flow for all partners by enabling advanced planning of reception and delivery operations. Users can download and access posted documents in advance, streamlining processes and reducing delays.
With eTSM, each partner can measure and quantify their cargo transfer capacity, allowing for strategic budget allocation for future investments and operational improvements.
