The framework is aimed especially at mid-market manufacturers and food producers.
It covers end-to-end transportation visibility, intelligent planning and route optimization, carrier collaboration and digital freight networks, freight cost and settlement automation, and real-time analytics and risk management, giving for each the best practices, the SAP TM capabilities, and the risks reduced.
