Logistics Expert System Represents New Category, Next Generation of Industry Solutions

Teknowlogi, pioneer of the Logistics Expert System (LES) and creator of Tai, the industry’s only cloud-based solution built on artificial intelligence (AI), introduced its industry-changing platform and mobile intelligence at the 3PL & Supply Chain Summit in Chicago. LES is a next-generation platform category, representing a much-needed advancement for traditional industry logistics systems.

“Companies that continue to manage their logistics with outdated systems will be unable to compete,” said Spencer Askew, founder and CEO of Teknowlogi. “At the core of our DNA, we believe every organization in the industry can―and should―operate as the most perfect version of itself at all times. This is why we created the Logistics Expert System and Tai. Technology platforms that incorporate artificial intelligence are already being used to successfully emulate human decision-making in such complex areas as medical diagnosis and stock exchange trading. The logistics industry has a long-running and unmet need for this type of solution.” 

LES is More Than TMS

LES is the first global SaaS solution to combine transportation management systems (TMS), mobile intelligence (MI), integration intelligence (II), business intelligence (BI), consulting intelligence (CI) and AI in one platform. LES is powered by Tai and is able to assess, analyze, provide recommendations and execute change for numerous logistical and business situations that affect all players within the shipping industry, including shippers, 3PLs, freight forwarders, LTL brokers, truckload brokers, LTL carriers, truckload carriers, drayage carriers, cartage agents, couriers, and parcel carriers. Tai is the industry’s first solution that incorporates business process management and consulting intelligence into the platform’s workflow.

Tai Mobile Intelligence Transcends Other Industry Mobile Apps

Tai Mobile Intelligence enables on-demand self-service for data, business process management and API management for all segments of the logistics industry, creating a one-stop shop for all types of asset carriers, 3PLs and shippers. It enables end-users to address industry “hot points” such as shipment visibility and shipment management, trailer management and trailer/truck capacity management anytime and from any location.

The combined solutions provide unrivaled visibility and access to data that enable real-time decision-making in today’s 24/7/365 logistics industry. End-users will now be able to:

• Make real-time data field enhancements via a self-service portal
• Automate manual and redundant business processes
• Capture profit-and-loss and balance-sheet elements relevant to the business
• Neutrally integrate with any industry platform for a single source of data management/flow

An Easy, Painless Upgrade Path for Legacy Systems

Tai has multiple patents pending and is engineered as an integration-friendly platform for all legacy logistics systems, such as warehouse management systems (WMS), rate management systems (RMS), freight management systems (FMS), enterprise resource planning (ERP) and accounting. With a singleline of code, Tai can be deployed into legacy TMS―advancing it into an LES platform that is more intelligent, current and scalable. This IT-friendly approach provides companies with a low- to no-cost implementation achievable in 30 days or less. 

Pricing for Tai and Tai Mobile Intelligence is based on a monthly-consumption model.

Teknowlogi was the title sponsor at this year’s 3PL & Supply Chain Summit with Askew delivering the keynote address, “Practical, Relevant and Game-Changing ‘Better Methods,’” to officially kick-off the conference.
