WITH NOOR VISION

SAP TM (Transportation Management)

SAP TM (Transportation Management) is a module of the SAP ERP system that supports companies in efficiently planning, controlling and monitoring their logistics and transport processes. It covers all essential functions associated with the transport of goods and materials and enables comprehensive management of the entire supply chain.

WHY SAP TM

Increased efficiency

SAP TM offers companies a comprehensive solution for optimising their transport processes. Through integration into the SAP ERP system and close integration with other business areas, SAP TM enables efficient planning, execution and monitoring of transports. It helps companies to reduce costs, increase efficiency and provide better customer service.

FUNCTIONS OF SAP TM

Effective transport planning

SAP TM is particularly useful for companies that operate complex logistics networks and have a high demand for effective transport planning and monitoring. It is used in a wide range of industries, including manufacturing, retail, automotive, chemicals, consumer goods and logistics services.

When to
switch to SAP TM?

SAP TM (Transportation Management) is particularly useful for companies that need to manage complex and extensive logistics and transport processes. Here are some specific scenarios in which the use of SAP TM is particularly advantageous:

Complex supply chains and logistics networks

Companies with complex supply chains that include multiple modes of transport (e.g. road, rail, air, sea) and different geographical regions benefit significantly from SAP TM. The module enables efficient planning and coordination of these complex networks, which can reduce logistics costs and shorten delivery times.

High freight volumes

SAP TM is ideal for companies that regularly transport large quantities of goods. It helps to optimise transport by selecting freight consolidations, optimal routes and means of transport to minimise costs and maximise efficiency.

Adherence to compliance and customs regulations

SAP TM is useful for companies that regularly carry out international transport and are subject to strict customs regulations and compliance requirements. The module supports the management of customs processes and ensures that all legal requirements are met in order to avoid delays and penalties.

Cost efficiency and freight cost management

SAP TM offers comprehensive freight cost management functions for companies that want to precisely control and optimise their transport costs. It helps to negotiate and manage freight contracts, monitor actual transport costs and ensure accurate and efficient billing.

IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGIES

How is SAP TM implemented?

Greenfield approach:

Here, a new system is built from the ground up. This offers the opportunity to redesign and optimise business processes from scratch.

Brownfield approach:

A system conversion in which the existing SAP system is migrated to SAP TM. 

Hybrid approach:

A combination of greenfield and brownfield, in which certain processes or modules are newly implemented and others are migrated.
