Manhattan Associates Leads in 2022 Gartner Magic Quadrant™ for Transportation Management Systems

Manhattan Associates Inc., a global leader in supply chain commerce solutions, today announced that, for the fourth year in a row, it has been named a Leader in Gartner Inc. Magic Quadrant™ for Transportation Management Systems.

Today’s logistics networks are incredibly complex and transportation management systems are under tremendous pressure to perform more shipments with fewer resources. Manhattan Active® Transportation Management was redesigned and rebuilt last year with the industry’s fastest and smartest shipping optimization engine to create the industry’s most technologically advanced transportation planning and execution solution. This fully extensible solution provides transportation planners with a single, intuitive experience for visualizing and optimizing their entire network.


“We are delighted to again be named a Leader in Transportation Management Solutions by Gartner Research,” said Gregg Lanyard, senior director of Product Management for Manhattan Associates. “Last year, we took what was already a leading TMS solution and redesigned it to create the industry’s first self-configuring and self-tuning system with dramatically faster solve times. Manhattan’s ‘never settle’ approach and dedication to innovation make us perennial market leaders in the TMS market.”

Manhattan’s TMS was also recognized in the accompanying 2022 Gartner Critical Capabilities for Transportation Management Systems. The research firm evaluated Manhattan Active Transportation Management across nine key capabilities and five use cases based on the level of operational complexity. Manhattan’s TMS was the only cloud-native, 100 percent microservices solution evaluated in the report.

Manhattan Active Transportation Management is one of the leading products for mid to high complexity TMS operations and seamlessly combines with Manhattan Active Warehouse Management to form the Manhattan Active Supply Chain, a landmark advancement in supply chain efficiency and optimization. The company has leveraged Manhattan Active technology to unify distribution, transportation, labor and automation within a single, cloud-native application. Within 12 months following the launch of Manhattan Active Transportation Management, the solution is already deployed globally by leading brands such as ICA, Lands’ End, and RaiaDrogasil.

Companies double down on resilience as trade complexities rise

Most retail, wholesale, and manufacturing businesses are focused on fundamentally restructuring their supply chains to stay ahead of economic uncertainty. That’s according to results of the second annual State of Supply Chain report from supply chain solutions platform provider Relex Solutions, released Tuesday.

Relex surveyed nearly 600 professionals from retail, consumer packaged goods (CPG), and wholesale businesses across seven countries and found that 60% said they are overhauling their supply chains due to tariff uncertainty and market volatility.

Raising the bar on inventory visibility

Raising the bar on inventory visibility

Ask 10 warehousing experts about the optimal level of inventory visibility, and you'll get a dozen different responses.

Sure, most would agree on the importance of accurate inventory counts—knowing exactly how many items are in every carton, crate, and pallet stored in the facility. But depending on what type of goods the warehouse handles, opinions will vary widely on how much accuracy is good enough and what's the best technique for counting.

When a 7.0-magnitude earthquake struck Port-au-Prince, Haiti, in 2010, a fledgling humanitarian group knew its day had come—after months of planning, it would finally be able to take its model live and see how well it worked. Formed a year earlier to support humanitarian relief efforts, that group, Airlink, had established a network of airline partners it could call on to provide free or discounted airlift in times of crisis. As it turned out, the model held up in testing. In the weeks following the earthquake, Airlink successfully coordinated the movement of more than 2,000 doctors and nurses and more than 40 shipments of aid totaling more than 500,000 pounds into the disaster zone.

Fifteen years later, the group is still carrying out that mission—but on a much larger scale. Airlink's network today includes over 200 aid organizations and over 50 commercial and charter airlines. Since its inception, the group has flown 13,500 relief workers and transported 18 million pounds of humanitarian cargo, directly helping 60 million people impacted by natural and man-made disasters.

How risky is your route?

When planning routes for their delivery trucks, fleet managers—or more likely, their route planning software systems—consider factors like mileage, road height and weight restrictions, traffic conditions, and weather. They can now add another variable to the mix, thanks to a new tool that calculates the chances that a load might be stolen along the way.

Developed by New Jersey-based risk assessment firm Verisk Analytics, CargoNet RouteScore API generates a cargo theft "risk score" that provides a relative measure of probability that crime and loss will occur along any given route in the U.S. and Canada. Using a proprietary algorithm, the tool rates routes on a scale from 1 to 100—with 1 representing the lowest likelihood of theft—based on risk factors such as cargo type, value, length of haul, origin, destination, day of the week, and the theft history of specific truck stops.

The rise of designer diesel

Drivers typically choose a specific blend of gasoline based on their car's engine, picking high-octane fuel for a sports car and regular gas for the family sedan. Now a company has launched a similar range of products for diesel fuel, saying the offerings are calibrated for vehicles like commercial trucks.

That company, Nevada-based Advanced Refining Concepts LLC (ARC), will launch two new products, GDiesel Lightning and GDiesel Thunder, by mid-year, the company said in January. According to the firm, GDiesel Lightning is a lighter, faster-igniting diesel fuel than the classic mix and is designed specifically for urban start-stop operations—think delivery vehicles, light trucks, city buses, and passenger vehicles. GDiesel Thunder is a heavier, higher energy-content fuel made for steadier and more continuous engine operating modes, making it suitable for long-haul trucking or rail and marine applications.
