Intermodal Transport Management System (TMS)
One system for planning, executing and monitoring intermodal transport
Intermodal transport planning
Road or rail, barge, ferry or short-sea: which combination of transport modes offers the best solution? Organising intermodal transport presents many a planner with headaches, especially in the absence of a central solution for planning each modality. After planning, it is impractical to keep track of each transport mode and ensure that all modalities remain in sync.
ICT Logistics' intermodal Transport Management System (TMS) calculates the optimal route for containers and trailers based on lead time, CO2-emission and cost. Are the goods required tomorrow or is there room for a green alternative? The intelligent algorithms of the intermodal TMS provide the answer and ensure that all modes are optimally coordinated.
Planning and adjusting quickly and adequately
Whether you are a logistics service provider, run inland terminals or coordinate entire chains: TMS makes multimodal transport planning easier than ever before. Once the optimal transport solution has been determined, the system offers a separate planning module for each modality. With just a few clicks, you book transport capacity with your regular carriers. Shipments are assigned to the right truck and driver, the container is placed on the right wagon and a place on the next ship is booked.

Maintain control anytime anywhere with real-time tracking and tracing of all container and trailer shipments. Low water levels, rail strikes or time-consuming border controls? ICT Logistics' TMS allows you to quickly find and schedule an alternative route. Stagnation due to an unexpected blockade? Switch immediately to another mode of transport so that shipments still arrive on time and customer expectations are met
More cost-efficient as well as sustainable
TMS offers more benefits. Every plan proposal can be turned into a competitive quote, including the expected CO2 emissions, with just a few clicks. Clients, consignees and other stakeholders can track their shipments in real time, receive automatic updates in case of schedule changes and get instant delivery receipts. As connections, rates and agreements with carriers are digitally recorded, invoicing is easier than ever.
The development of ICT Logistics' TMS was based on years of experience in intermodal transport. Dozens of logistics companies from across Europe use our software to enhance their intermodal transport capabilities, making their operations more cost-efficient as well as more sustainable.
