Transporeon launches integrated app program to enhance accessibility and use for carriers

T ransporeon , 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 licence 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 .”
