Rohlig Logistics, a company with over 160 years of experience in global freight forwarding, was in need of a transportation management system (TMS) that could deliver pallet-based rating. This was to serve Rohlig’s many LTL carriers that dealt with very heavy pallets. To the best of Rohlig’s knowledge, no TMS provider had this capability. This posed a significant challenge as it limited Rohlig's ability to efficiently manage and optimize their logistics processes.
