Savoye's ODATiO: Tailored solutions for modern logistics
Management Systems (TMS), and Order Management Systems (OMS). Hammoudeh
states, “Compared to other combined WMS and TMS solutions in the market, ODATiO
has a distinctive reputation since it is a singular platform. It integrates three key
management systems, including warehouse, transport, and order management, which
are essential for modern warehousing operations.”
What makes ODATiO particularly attractive is its flexibility and modular design. “It can
function as a standalone WMS or TMS or as a combination of different modules as per
the customer’s specific needs,” Hammoudeh explains. This modular approach allows
customers to implement only the functionalities they require initially, with the flexibility
to add more modules as their operations grow.
The platform also offers scalability, providing customers with a future-proof solution. “If
they want to add an OMS or additional TMS functionalities later, they can seamlessly
integrate those modules into the existing platform without any disruption,” he adds.
This adaptability ensures that ODATiO evolves alongside its users, accommodating
changes in their logistics requirements.
Another key differentiator is ODATiO’s interoperability. “Since it is already integrated
with ERP and other third-party systems, ODATiO can facilitate smooth operation and
growth as the customer’s needs evolve,” notes Hammoudeh. This seamless integration
not only improves operational efficiency, but also ensures businesses can manage
complex logistics networks effectively.
Enhancing logistics with real-time visibility
One of ODATiO’s core strengths is its integration with real-time shipment visibility
solutions, which enhances the platform’s ability to optimise transport operations.
Hammoudeh explains how the transport management component ensures seamless
shipment processes. “Even though the prime focus of ODATiO is on warehouse
management, through the integration of TMS aspects, it optimises and automates the
shipment process of goods outside of the warehouse.”
ODATiO takes automation a step further by offering intelligent carrier selection. “It
automates carrier selection and consolidates contracts with different carriers and
courier partners while considering factors such as distance, weight, volume, and
destination,” Hammoudeh shares. This smart functionality ensures that users always
receive the best shipping options based on their specific operational needs.
The platform also ensures complete transparency throughout the logistics process.
Hammoudeh highlights the importance of Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) in
ODATiO’s functionality, “ODATiO can seamlessly integrate with shipment partners
through EDI, which enables real-time tracking by receiving electronic updates from
