Logistics Service Providers Applications

WHY ORACLE

ORACLE IS A LEADER IN TRAVEL AND TRANSPORTATION

Through its comprehensive portfolio of products and strategic acquisitions of G-Log, JD Edwards, PeopleSoft, Siebel, Hyperion, and BEA, Oracle brings industry-leading applications, middleware, and infrastructure technologies to the logistics service provider industry.

With Oracle solutions, logistics service providers (LSPs) can increase and retain profitable clients, introduce new services to market quickly, improve operational efficiency, and adhere to compliance and regulatory requirements globally.

Whether they are freight forwarders, 3PLs, or providers of contract logistics services, LSPs can use Oracle Transportation Management to manage transportation sourcing, planning, and execution. And, LSPs can rely on Oracle's supply chain planning and execution applications to optimize logistics networks, manage transportation and warehousing operations, and provide other value-added services to manufacturers and retailers.

With Oracle Fleet Management, trucking companies, shippers with private fleets, and 3PLs who own and manage assets can efficiently assign drivers to loads; track and manage fleets; and optimize assignment of drivers to loads—improving driver satisfaction, lowering empty miles, and increasing fleet utilization.

Additionally, Oracle offers Process Integration Packs to streamline the quote-to-cash process through pre-built integrations that link Oracle's Siebel Customer Order Management with Oracle Transportation Management and Oracle E-Business Suite.
