Krans / Transport management system

A transport management system for African logistics and trucking companies.

Krans connects the commercial side of a transport business (clients, shipments and invoices) with the operational side: trucks, drivers, trips and borders. Your operations, finance and management teams work from the same records instead of reconciling spreadsheets at month-end.

Questions about transport management system

What is a transport management system (TMS)?

A transport management system plans, executes and records the movement of goods: taking orders, assigning vehicles, following deliveries and invoicing for the work. Krans combines TMS workflows with fleet management, so the same system covers both the shipment and the truck that carried it.

Is Krans a TMS or fleet management software?

Both. Shipments, allocations, dispatch and invoicing cover the transport management side; trucks, drivers, fuel, tyres and maintenance cover fleet management. Finance, HR and procurement modules run in the same workspace.
