Molex: TMS Brings New Levels of Logistics Efficiency
The Molex slogan, “bringing people and technology together, worldwide,” has a special meaning for this manufacturer’s logistics managers. They are in charge of the “bringing” part, managing an incredibly complex global pipeline of raw materials and finished products moving to and from Molex facilities and customers.
The company had been using CTSI-Global’s freight bill payment and audit services for 12 years, and needed to elevate supply chain visibility and centralize cost controls. CTSI-Global was able to fill a gap within Molex’s existing SAP resource planning system by offering its “la carte” TMS modules.
“CTSI-Global has reduced paperwork here to almost nothing. This improves Molex’s relationships with carriers because they don’t have to create paper invoices and wait for them to be delivered, hand processed, and then paid.”
“We decided to make CTSI-Global a partner in managing our supply chain logistics,” said Mark Slick, Import/Export Manager, “and the initial challenge was to get control of domestic distribution and negotiate with carriers.”
