Connect transport, warehouse and finance systems so orders, inventory, shipments and billing data move reliably between TMS, WMS and ERP without manual re-keying or conflicting records.
Who this is for
3PLs running separate TMS, WMS and ERP platforms across sites
Manufacturers and distributors with warehouse and transport silos
Operations teams reconciling shipment, inventory and invoice data manually
IT leaders planning integration before portal, dashboard or AI initiatives
What this solves
- 01
Manual transfer of orders and shipment data between systems
- 02
Inventory and dispatch mismatches discovered after cutoff
- 03
Billing delays when POD, weight or accessorial data is missing in ERP
- 04
No reliable audit trail across system boundaries
What we can build first
Entity mapping for orders, shipments, SKUs, locations and partners
Event-driven sync for milestones, inventory moves and status changes
Validation rules and exception queues for failed or partial payloads
Idempotent processing and replay for reliable batch and API flows
Integration monitoring with freshness indicators and alert thresholds
Documentation and runbooks for ops and IT support teams
Next step
Map your workflow before you choose the architecture.
If this service area matches a manual workflow in your operation, the best next step is to document users, systems, data ownership and rollout constraints. Then design the product layer around that.

FAQ
Common questions
Do you integrate with our specific TMS, WMS and ERP vendors?
4RTY works with common logistics platforms through APIs, EDI and file-based patterns. Discovery confirms available endpoints, auth models and data gaps for your stack.
Should we use EDI or APIs?
It depends on partner and vendor capabilities. Many operations use APIs internally and EDI or SFTP for external partners, often within the same integration architecture.
How do you handle integration failures during peak season?
Validation, idempotent processing, exception queues and replay tooling keep failures visible and recoverable without silent data loss.
Can integration support future portal and dashboard projects?
Yes. A well-modeled integration layer becomes the data foundation for customer portals, control towers and automation workflows.
Best next step
If this workflow is already creating manual work, poor visibility or repeated communication inside your logistics operation, the best next step is to map the process, systems and users before choosing the software architecture.
