NetSuite for Transport & Logistics
Time is money in the transport business and if assets aren’t moving, they’re costing money.
Information systems are revolutionising the efficiency, control and management capabilities of transport operators, providing visibility into logistics operations and supply chains which were never before possible.
With NetSuite, Project Salsa is empowering modern transport operators to know more, plan better, work moving assets more effectively and boost the bottom line.
