Global Trade Management Solutions

for Logistics Providers

The rapid growth in global trade over the past twenty years has created a multi-billion dollar industry in logistics services. Amber Road helps Logistics Service Providers (LSPs) and 3rd Party Logistics Providers (3PLs) to profitably grow their operations with a number of global trade management (GTM) solutions. These solutions help manage costs related to contract management and pricing, automate proposal generation, and help logistics providers deliver a portfolio of value-added products for their customers.

Transportation Management

Supply Chain Visibility
Supply Chain Visibility (SCV) helps you manage your clients' in-transit inventory and provides higher levels of customer service. For LSPs, we provide the ability to help clients view all in-transit shipments and corresponding orders. Our Purchase Order Management solution builds upon SCV to offer your clients additional value-added supply chain management services by coordinating orders at origin and improving fulfillment to the ultimate destination. Confirmed orders are posted to a Supplier Portal, allowing you and your client to monitor order acceptance, production status and conformance to ship windows.
