Managing an intricate supply chain requires extensive optimization. However, Gerdau Long Steel North America’s previous transportation management system (TMS) kept falling short in delivering the necessary automation, data, and visibility. Real-time access to data was essential for making informed decisions and maintaining a competitive edge. Gerdau needed the ability to not only track shipments in real time but also leverage advanced analytics to make proactive decisions.
In response, Gerdau sought to transition to a new next-generation solution, aiming to increase visibility and improve carrier and rate management. This prompted them to search for a TMS that could fully support the next phase of their supply chain evolution.
