Integration between Ongoing WMS and VersaFleet TMS

The VersaFleet transport management system Software-as-a-Service (TMS SaaS) automates logistics operations with scheduling & route optimization, sign-on-glass, electronic Proof-Of-Delivery, instant notifications and real-time job status tracking. VersaFleet powers more than 2,000 users worldwide working across 150+ companies, including Fortune 500 brands like Watsons, Canon, Johnson & Johnson, as well as major 3PLs like XPO Logistics.

“The integration with Ongoing WMS strengthens our market position in Asia and supports our market expansion into Europe. Ongoing WMS is a great complement to our transport management system. Using the integration between the two systems results in an extremely efficient logistics process”, says Yvonne Toh, Customer Experience Manager at VersaFleet.

The integration allows for delivery orders to be automatically created as tasks in VersaFleet based on the order information from Ongoing WMS. A task is created in VersaFleet by clicking the “SEND” button in Ongoing WMS. Information about transportation status is then received from VersaFleet and is available in Ongoing WMS. This automated process eliminates any manual work from the operations team, thereby instantly removing any possible erroneous information that emerges from human error. This also saves the users time that would have resulted from updating both systems.

The main purpose of the integration is to make the last mile of the supply chain more efficient, especially with regards to the transportation planning process. This also leads to increased transparency and visibility throughout the supply chain with up to date information for all parties.

“Ongoing WMS now has an integration with one of the market-leading TMS´s in Asia. We have seen an increasing demand for our service in Asia and this integration makes an important step towards our international expansion. VersaFleet delivers a very competent TMS and I am sure that many companies will have great use of the integration” says Fredrik Einarsson, CEO at Ongoing Warehouse.

Ongoing Warehouse delivers a web-based warehouse management system suited for logistics-intensive companies such as 3PL and e-commerce businesses. Ongoing Warehouse is based in Gothenburg, Sweden and is the market leader in its niche in Scandinavia. Ongoing is also growing rapidly globally. With a growing number of customers in Asia, in countries like Malaysia, India and Brunei, the integration is especially important.
