End-to-End Transportation Operations
With the Transportation Management System module, you can perform transportation planning through different transportation panel types and manage the freight order lifecycle end to end.
You can control all transportation operations—from carrier tendering processes to cost management—on a single platform.
Carrier Portal
With the Carrier Portal, transportation companies can view assigned jobs and current status summaries through a dashboard. They can review and respond to tenders, analyze past bids and results, track payment statuses and invoicing processes, and easily submit additional cost notifications—making the entire process transparent and traceable.
Transportation Management Features
Freight and Contract Management
With the Transportation Management Module, you can manage tender processes for freight contracts and define the resulting agreements in the system.
You can centrally record rates, additional charges, and transportation terms linked to your contracts. These agreements are used as references throughout transportation planning and invoicing processes.
Vehicle Planning and Transportation Requests
Based on shipment volume and weight information, the module enables you to determine the required number of vehicles and create transportation plans by considering vehicle capacities.
During the planning phase, you can calculate routes that match capacity and vehicle types while taking traffic conditions into account, and view estimated transportation costs before execution.
Based on the created plan, vehicle and transportation requests can be sent to carriers directly through the system.
Expense, Invoicing, and Reconciliation Processes
You can define carrier-related expense items before transportation begins and keep them under control before the invoicing process starts.
Carrier invoices can be pre-checked by comparing them with contract and expense details. This allows you to clarify costs before transportation is completed and eliminate the risk of unexpected invoices.
Transportation Execution and Mobile Operations
Planned transportation activities can be managed via web and mobile devices, allowing you to monitor progress in real time.
Route execution, loading, unloading, and delivery steps performed on-site via mobile devices are recorded in the system. You can also access delivery-related barcode scans and customer signature information directly from the system.
Unlimited Carrier and Logistics Provider Definitions
There are no additional user-, transaction-, or usage-based fees for defining carriers and logistics providers used in transportation processes.
Tender Management
You can create transportation scenarios, collect digital bids from carriers, and manage the entire logistics process end to end—from tender to delivery.
With restricted-access carrier links, companies can view only their own transportation processes, submit and revise bids, and report additional costs. Pre-transport confirmations, document viewing, and real-time process tracking make operations transparent and controllable. The system tracks bid changes and process statuses in real time, accelerating decision-making.
Freight Order Creation
Once the most suitable bid is selected, the freight order is automatically created. Routes, deliveries, and operational steps are tracked through JetLM.
Drivers can monitor their tasks via mobile devices, receive map-based route guidance, and securely record deliveries in the system through barcode scanning and digital signature capture.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which processes does the Transportation Management Module cover?
It covers end-to-end processes including freight tendering and contract management, vehicle and capacity planning, transportation execution, expense management, and pre-invoice control.
Can freight carriers submit bids through the system?
Yes. Freight carriers can submit price and expense revisions through the system based on the tenders sent to them
Can all potential costs be clarified before transportation takes place?
Yes. Expense and pricing details are confirmed and finalized before transportation, eliminating the risk of unexpected invoices after delivery.
How are vehicle requirements and transportation costs determined through the portal?
Based on the volume and weight of the shipments, the system calculates the required number of vehicles and enables transportation costs to be forecast in advance.
Is mobile usage supported, and can drivers use the system?
Yes. Drivers can use mobile devices to track their routes and record deliveries, barcode scans, and delivery events directly in the system.
Can we also manage transports carried out with our own vehicles?
Yes. The company can create routes for transports carried out with its own vehicles and track all transportation processes through the system.
How is the carrier bid collection process managed with JetLM?
JetLM enables the digital collection of preliminary price quotations from selected carriers based on origin–destination routes and detailed cost breakdowns.
How is the tender process tracked in JetLM?
The tender process in JetLM is tracked through the statuses: Not Started, Published, Pending, Accepted, and Completed.
