Addressing Common Questions for Bulk Liquid Transporters.
Implementing a new transportation management system (TMS) is a significant decision for any fleet, especially those with specialized equipment and operational needs like bulk liquid transporters. Whether switching providers or digitizing your office for the first time, it’s crucial to ask the right questions to find the most viable solution for your business.
To help you navigate this process, we’ve compiled answers to the five most common questions tanker fleets ask when evaluating TrueLiquid, a modern, SaaS-based TMS platform built from the ground up to help bulk liquid transporters scale efficiencies and drive profitable growth.
TrueLiquid offers advanced inventory management features for bulk liquid transporters. Besides integration with automatic tank monitoring systems for real-time inventory visibility, we provide:
- TrueCast: An integrated forecasting model that predicts customer demand using historical or live tank-level readings. The system can automatically create orders when inventories reach pre-determined reorder points.
- TrueSource: An extension for reviewing daily pricing from existing contracts to third-party data sources to identify the lowest-cost commodity from suppliers.
These features work together to optimize your operations, allowing you to:
- Consolidate order volumes
- Maximize delivery efficiencies
- Reduce deadhead miles
- Prevent spills and eliminate instances where gallons remain in delivery vehicles.
TrueLiquid is designed for rapid implementation, typically within a few weeks. Our support experts provide white-glove guidance. Once we move your data into a secure cloud environment, you will have access anytime, anywhere, as you experience immediate advantages from:
- An intuitive interface that’s fast and easy to learn.
- Flexible design that allows for tailored workflows and scaling operations to grow without adding overhead.
- Cloud-based SaaS architecture ensures regular delivery of new features and upgrades.
- Dedicated account manager to answer questions and provide training
- 24/7 support to resolve issues quickly
As mentioned, we have integrations with tank monitoring systems to capture demand data. TrueLiquid excels at integration and has a growing list of pre-built connections with numerous third-party systems.
We also have a native driver app that automates detention time tracking, digitizes mobile workflows and forms, and captures delivery documents to speed up invoicing.
If we don’t already have an integration with any of your systems, we can develop them quickly. In most cases, an integration requires an easy installation of a partner extension without customization.
