Princeton TMX
Transforming Transport Management with Innovative Solutions

Keeping up with the latest transport management trends is essential for seamless logistic and supply chain management. A robust transportation management system (TMS) is one of the most potent tools a shipper can have today for expediting error-free delivery service, from sourcing raw materials to distributing the end product.

Princeton TMX has developed a cloud-based multi-model platform that automates and optimizes the shipping process to boost supply chain efficiency. It provides a wide range of features and capabilities that enable customers to get the most out of their logistical operations. The platform’s features make it easy to schedule appointments inside delivery windows, track shipments and provide real-time visibility. This allows shippers to combine multiple loading, schedule appointments, cut costs and generate custom reports using AI's advanced analytics and data insights.

“We aim to shape the trajectory of the shipping and logistics industry by fostering a culture of innovation, technological advancement and forward-thinking strategies,” says Mark McEntire, CEO of Princeton TMX.

Its expertise spans multiple markets, including fast-moving consumer goods, food and beverage, lumber and construction materials, chemical and mineral, steel and metals, agriculture and paper and packaging.

At Princeton TMX, resolving issues before they turn into costly disruptions is a top priority. Its exception management system provides teams with instant visibility into their most important tasks to keep products moving through the supply chain. The digital technology automates daily operations, enabling clients to focus on what matters most. Teams can use the Princeton TMX dashboard to manage all exceptions from one place, take the guesswork out of day-to-day operations and ensure automated and hassle-free communication between their teams and carriers.

Princeton TMX’s comprehensive integration of modules and tools enhances the logistics process for shippers and carriers. The platform simplifies dock scheduling and enables carriers to schedule their appointments independently. It excels in creating strategies for cost control and efficient shipment planning, effectively managing loads, routes, and expenses. The optimization tool establishes a plan that ensures excellent service at the lowest price.

Shippers can take advantage of the tendering feature, which combines multiple loads into a single tender, supports spot rate tendering, and allows for posting private load opportunities. The sustainability tool integrated into the Princeton TMX system enables shippers to measure their carbon footprint during shipment execution. This tool provides shippers with a clear and accurate understanding of their load’s environmental impact, empowering them to use data to establish sustainable transportation networks.

To reduce transportation complexities, Princeton TMX collaborates with customers and keeps them informed with real-time updates, changes and proactive notifications. It turns the supply chain into a competitive advantage to make customers feel more connected and valued.

The team exceeds expectations by actively solving problems and offering new opportunities and strategies. These plans, developed along with clients, also have the potential to unlock additional business opportunities.

For instance, a wood based fiber pulp and paper manufacturer required improved management of freight arrangements with their transportation partners. Princeton TMX implemented its TMS using a software-as-a-service model to improve customer delivery and reduce freight spending by 18.7 percent, saving the client millions of dollars in the process.

Princeton TMX recognizes the power of advanced solutions. Through its next-generation TMS, it delivers real-time shipment tracking, accurate freight rate calculations and alignment of carrier capacities with shipments.
