In an effort to gain greater supply chain control and generate long-term savings, many shippers opt to purchase their own TMS. This often creates a slippery slope of additional costs—implementation, maintenance, training and employing individuals to operate the system, and system upgrades. Eventually, many shippers find themselves burdened by the very software that they were expecting to help contain costs and transform their businesses.
