7. Obstacle to Logistics Management System implementation Most businesses that ship frequently have established contracted rates with less-than-truckload carriers, either directly or through a third party. Yet even with all of the third-party research available today outlining the benefits of using a technology solution to manage contracted rates, many shippers have not adopted a TMS. Decision makers typically have a long list of excuses not to implement a logistics management software, such as their current process works fine. Logistics Management solutions are too expensive. The company tried using a logistics management system before and it didn't work well with their processes. They have a million-dollar freight spend budget, but can't spend a penny on logistics software or freight management software is too difficult to deploy. But on-demand logistics management have largely eliminated the cost and resource constraints companies have traditionally faced in implementing new technology and continuous improvement initiatives.
