Dan Hanrahan, Numina Group CEO, explains how the integration of a Transportation Management System (TMS) with a Warehouse Execution System (WES) powers better holistic decision-making. By ensuring that label data, rules, and logic reside within the TMS, this synchronization allows for seamless order release and execution. The connection between these two systems is crucial to maintaining smooth operations and delivering more efficient, automated decisions throughout the warehouse.
Shannon Vaillancourt, RateLinx CEO, discusses how integrating Warehouse Execution Systems (WES) and Transportation Management Systems (TMS) optimizes warehouse execution earlier in the process. This integration ensures that products are efficiently routed to the proper location for shipment, whether they’re being conveyed directly to a trailer for parcel shipments or prepared for LTL or truckload. By using key data like dimensions and weight, this synchronized system automates carrier selection, labeling, and shipping, keeping the entire operation running smoothly and avoiding costly shutdowns.
Dan Hanrahan, Numina Group CEO, describes how the integration of Warehouse Execution Systems (WES) and Transportation Management Systems (TMS) can dramatically improve warehouse productivity. By feeding product data such as size and weight into the TMS before picking, operators can automate key tasks like generating labels, packing, and directing shipments—all in one seamless step. With this integration, warehouse operators can optimize the fulfillment process, whether handling non-conveyable items like bicycles or smaller products that can be grouped together for efficient shipment.
Dan Hanrahan, Numina Group CEO, explains how the integration of Transportation Management Systems (TMS) with Warehouse Execution Systems (WES) takes the guesswork out of product fulfillment. By automating best practices and optimizing decisions like carrier selection and shipping speed, these systems ensure products are shipped at the lowest possible cost—without compromising efficiency. Hanrahan highlights how TMS automation helps avoid unnecessary expenses, such as paying high fees for next-day delivery when more cost-effective options are available. This integration not only makes warehouse operations smarter but also boosts overall efficiency and profitability.
Shannon Vaillancourt, RateLinx CEO, discusses how integrating transportation management systems (TMS) with warehouse execution systems (WES) can lead to significant cost savings by optimizing carrier selection and shipping modes. Instead of defaulting to expedited shipping, companies can leverage TMS to find cost-effective alternatives—like using ground or regional parcel carriers to meet must-arrive-by dates without compromising efficiency. Shannon highlights how these strategic changes can cut transportation costs without disrupting the warehouse’s picking process, all while maintaining operational efficiency with WES.
Shannon Vaillancourt, RateLinx CEO, explains how integrating transportation management systems (TMS) and warehouse execution systems (WES) helps businesses maximize cost savings by factoring in both handling and shipping costs.

With real-time data feeding into the system, these combined solutions help create a seamless and efficient workflow, enabling businesses to maximize their operational success.
Shannon Vaillancourt, RateLinx CEO, dives into the benefits of automating warehouse execution systems (WES) and transportation management systems (TMS). Shannon discusses how automation ensures consistency in processes like rate shopping and handling costs—tasks that are nearly impossible to manage manually with the same precision.
