Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Transportation Management Systems (TMS) primarily focus on optimizing the planning, execution, and optimization of the physical movement of goods. While they can lead to reduced fuel consumption, decreased empty vehicle miles, and reduced transportation expenditures through efficient route planning and load optimization, they do not directly influence stock levels or prevent stockouts. Stockouts are more directly affected by inventory management systems and demand forecasting rather than transportation management.
