HOW WE WORK
TRITAN™ is our proprietary Transportation Management System (TMS) developed with full end-to-end functionality for all aspects of the transportation chain.
  • An internet-based, real-time application, that allows for full shipment execution such as creating shipments and loads, tendering and tracking loads, and more.
  • Tender loads via email, portals or electronic interface (EDI).
  • Generates documents (tender/dispatch, quotes, bill of lading, invoices)
  • Offers optimization of routes, route planning (multi-pick/multi-drop) and access to a wider community of carriers and solutions
  • Increases carrier reliability and performance, reduces errors, and increases value to everyone involved
  • Invoices customer - manifest and individual
Case Study: Unpredictable production cycles posed logistics challenges for a leading manufacturer. A comprehensive solution that improved transportation flexibility and lowered costs was the answer.

For manufacturers, excellence is defined by quality products delivered on schedule to meet customer demand. One leading paper manufacturer produces some of the most environmentally friendly paper in the world, a product that's seen rapid (yet unpredictable) changes in customer demand. When its existing transportation operation struggled to deliver higher volumes to customers, it turned to Mode Transportation for new ideas. The result was a custom solution that gave the company far greater flexibility and control, and substantially lower transportation costs.
