CMS WorldLink Going Global? Logistical Factors to Consider Before Establishing Global Supply Chain Operations

a multi-carrier shipping solution

Transportation management solution “makeovers”

Our team has helped countless manufacturers, distributors, retailers and organizations to transition from their dated or inefficient shipping systems to deploying our enterprise-wide, global multi-carrier shipping solution, CMS WorldLink.

Meeting TMS business requirements

CMS WorldLink addresses a variety of functional areas and scopes related to shipping and logistics systems, including:

  • Transportation planning & execution
  • Supply chain event management and activity handling
  • End-to-end visibility
  • Reporting, analytics, and business intelligence

Project management

Success for each of our CMS WorldLink shipping system implementations requires solid project management covering:

  • Development of an overall implementation strategy
  • Development of technical standards for modifications, security, conversion, and system administration for all modules
  • Development of a comprehensive implementation plan, including allocation of needed resources
  • Project timeline, staging and scheduling
  • Task management and tracking
  • Project meetings and documentation

Consistent goals

When it comes to global supply chain logistics, we recognize each client has their own specific challenges, objectives and needs across their enterprise.

Shipping systems scenarios we often assist clients with include, but are certainly not limited to:

  • Transition from old shipping software to CMS WorldLink
  • Establish manifesting stations at main warehouse(s) for initial implementation
  • Improve shipping software speeds and efficiencies via multiple testings of data integration and transmissions
  • Reduce manifesting system down times and increase throughput at individual stations
  • Improve “ease of use” of CMS WorldLink through training and continuing education

Overall, we strive to build long term and mutually beneficial relationships with our clients.
