The implementation of a transportation management system has been evolving into a core business practice in the oil and gas industry. This management approach is assisting in the coordinating the efforts of people to accomplish goals and objectives using resources already available in an effective and efficient way.[1]
Management
Management’s purpose is to coordinate the efforts of people so they can accomplish goals and objectives using available resources efficiently and effectively. A management system comprises of planning, organizing, staffing, leading or directing, and controlling an organization to accomplish set goals. Management sizes can range from one person in a small business to thousands of managers in international organizations. In larger organizations, the board of directors defines the policy which is then carried out by the chief executive officer, or CEO.
Resourcing
The transportation management system is a set of strategies aimed at improving the overall performance of the transportation network without resorting to large-scale, expensive capital improvements. The system integrates methods to increase safety, efficiency, and capacity for all modes in transportation. Resourcing incorporates the deployment and management of human resources, financial resources, technological resources, and natural resources.[1]
