What is Transportation Planning?

Transportation Planning turns orders into feasible, cost-effective load and route plans. Planners (or automation) select modes, and carriers, consolidate orders, build multi-stop tours, and respect windows, driver HOS, axle/weight, equipment, and service SLAs. Tight ties to appointment scheduling smooth dock waves; visibility and exception workflows keep ETAs and promises accurate. Scenario tools let you test consolidation and mode shifts before releasing to tendering, so operations execute the plan, not fight it.
