VMS® represents the next generation of supply chain management. It was developed utilizing today's sophisticated web enabled technologies. Among its wide array of capabilities, VMS® validates bookings, manages shipment details across all modes of transport and increases control and visibility for all users. Our current version of VMS® is the fourth major release of the product and represents the culmination of twenty years of design and development in close collaboration with our customer base.
VMS® supplies each user with secure and accurate supply chain data by enabling all trading partners to communicate via the same interface and system. The system gives you real time product visibility and the ability to manipulate product flow in response to consumer demand. The end result is competitive advantage -- your company can respond faster and more cost effectively than its competitors.
Development Method
The VMS® programming team utilizes the Sprint methodology of agile software development. The Sprint approach offers development teams the flexibility to manage customer projects in six week segments of development time called Sprints, allowing for immediate implementation of new processes. This enables customers to see an immediate impact of new improvements while the development team does not over-extend its resources and can build upon the program improvements released each Sprint.
