Planning, operations tracking, and reporting in one platform
SmartEngine unifies air/road/sea/rail processes through a shared data model and consistent UX. Role-based access, traceability (events/logs), and KPI/SLA visibility help standardize execution across teams.
Modules
Clear abbreviations, clear value: SmartEngine connects warehouse, transportation, fleet, orders, and finance in one integrated platform.
Warehouse execution: inbound/outbound, picking/packing, and readiness signals.
Transportation planning and dispatch with exceptions and proof-of-delivery (POD).
Fleet execution connected to finance and profitability.
Order lifecycle and change management synchronized to execution.
Billing and cost control connected to operational reality.
Operational flow
From order to delivery—each step is connected, traceable, and measurable in real time.
OMS ↓ WMS ↓ TMS ↓ FMS ↓ Finance & Billing
All processes run in an integrated, real-time operational model.
About
We build operational systems that connect teams, make execution measurable, and keep integrations sustainable.
Who we are
A product-focused engineering team building SmartEngine for multimodal logistics execution—designed for day-to-day operations and governance.
What we do
We standardize how teams plan, execute, and report by using a common operational model across air/road/sea/rail.
- Create shared workflows that reduce handoffs and ambiguity.
- Make performance comparable with a common KPI/SLA dictionary.
- Keep integrations stable with monitoring, retries, and validation.
- Support audits and root-cause analysis through traceable events.
What success looks like
Clear ownership, a single timeline, and measurable milestones—so operations can act early instead of reacting late.
- One shipment context across systems: orders, inventory, legs, and documents stay connected.
- A shared KPI/SLA dictionary: periods, lanes, partners, and modes remain comparable.
- Governed changes: approvals, reasons, and events create an auditable decision trail.
- Continuous improvement loop: insight → action → outcome → measured impact.
Delivery approach
A practical path from discovery to a governed, measurable go-live.
- Discovery: lanes, volumes, systems, roles, and pain points.
- Operational model: milestones, reason codes, and KPI/SLA dictionary.
- Integrations: mapping, validation rules, monitoring, and retries.
- Rollout: templates, playbooks, training, and success metrics.
Integration philosophy
Keep sync durable: clear ownership, validation, and traceability.
- Shared identifiers and correlation keys for cross-system continuity.
- Validation at boundaries: prevent “half-updated” states and silent errors.
- Monitoring and retry strategy: resilience without duplicated work.
- Event timeline: every change is visible and auditable.
Built for real operations
Operations-first UX that supports governance without slowing teams down.
- Role-based actions: the right buttons for the right teams.
- Exception playbooks: standard actions for common disruptions.
- Shareable links and CSV: collaborate fast without losing control.
- Measurable outcomes: KPIs tied to events, not manual reporting.
Core capabilities
A single source of operational truth that surfaces delay risks early and accelerates coordination across teams.
Planning → Execution → Reporting
Shared flows reduce handoffs; processes run with a consistent logic.
Risk-focused visibility
Milestones and time windows bring at-risk work to the surface.
Authorization & traceability
Role-based guidance plus events/logging create a durable audit trail.
One platform, one operational truth
Standardize planning, execution, and reporting across sites by using a single data model, shared KPI/SLA definitions, and governed integrations.
- A single workflow language across WMS/TMS/OMS/FMS reduces handoffs.
- Events and timelines make changes traceable and auditable.
- Monitoring, validation, and retries keep integrations stable over time.
- Reports are comparable across modes, periods, lanes, and sites.
Transportation modules
Air, road, sea, and rail processes are managed under the same organizational context.
Air freight
Flight-level visibility with cargo readiness, time windows, and critical milestones. Advance tasks/actions from operation screens.
Road transport
Route planning, run management, and field operations. Standardize recurring flows (e.g., milk runs) from template → run generation → execution → SLA → reports.
Ocean freight
Port- and voyage-based operations with fast onboarding. Track statuses, delay reasons, and performance metrics on a single screen.
Rail freight
Standard flows for planning and execution monitoring. KPI/SLA visibility via milestones and process states, plus recording and reporting for continuous improvement.
Use cases
From daily dispatch to executive reporting—SmartEngine supports repeatable operations across multimodal workflows.
Time-critical air cargo execution
Manage readiness, flight milestones, exceptions, and SLA performance with traceable status changes and actionable alerts.
Cross-dock & warehouse coordination
Keep “ready” signals consistent across systems, reduce handoffs, and standardize gate-out and delivery confirmations.
Port & voyage operations
Track port events and voyage progress, capture delay reasons, and compare periods with the same KPI/SLA dictionary.
Intermodal rail visibility
Standardize planning and monitoring with milestone-based execution tracking and continuous improvement reporting.
Multimodal handoffs
Modules can run independently, but the real advantage comes from coordinated and integrated transitions.
A single timeline and shared milestones let your teams manage road → air → sea → rail transitions without losing context.
How transitions work
Handoffs are controlled by shared identifiers, readiness signals, and milestone mapping across modules—backed by traceable events.
- One shipment context: order, inventory, transport legs, and documents stay connected.
- Readiness & validation: WMS signals (ready/gate-out) advance the next leg in TMS.
- Milestone mapping: each mode uses the same KPI/SLA dictionary for comparable reporting.
- Exception playbooks: delays create tasks and alerts with audit-traceable reasons.
Realistic transition examples
A few end-to-end stories showing how modes connect in real operations.
Road → Air (export)
Pickup from supplier, consolidation at warehouse, then airport handoff with time-windowed milestones and SLA timers.
- OMS updates create WMS tasks; packing lists and labels stay consistent.
- WMS “ready” triggers TMS airport leg and milestone countdown.
- Flight delay updates exceptions and re-plans downstream legs.
Air → Sea (hub switch)
When priorities change, shipments switch from air to sea with controlled re-booking and a unified audit trail.
- Rule-based decision: cost vs SLA triggers mode change approval.
- New voyage milestones are created while keeping order context intact.
- Reports compare performance before/after the switch on the same KPI definitions.
Sea → Rail (intermodal)
Containers move from port operations to rail legs using shared milestones, events, and standardized process states.
- Port events update ETA and drive rail booking readiness.
- Rail leg uses the same SLA timers and exception reasons taxonomy.
- Operations share one timeline link across teams and partners.
Intermodal master scenario
A realistic story showing how the platform orchestrates handoffs across modes with one shipment context and one timeline.
Spain (supplier) ↓ Road pickup (truck) ↓ Port export gate-in ↓ Sea vessel (container) ↓ Port import gate-out ↓ Rail intermodal leg ↓ Road last-mile (truck) ↓ Warehouse / Delivery
Each arrow is a controlled handoff: milestones, documents, and exceptions stay traceable.
How SmartEngine orchestrates it
The platform doesn’t just track legs—it coordinates readiness, mapping, and governance so transitions are measurable and auditable.
- OMS creates the shipment context and change timeline (quantities, dates, priorities).
- WMS confirms readiness (pack complete, docs ready, gate-out) and triggers the next transport milestone.
- TMS plans each leg (road/sea/rail/road) and maps mode-specific events into a shared KPI/SLA dictionary.
- Sea leg is tracked with port/voyage events; transshipment or schedule changes create governed exceptions.
- Rail leg inherits the same shipment ID and timeline link; terminal events update ETA and downstream planning.
- Final road delivery captures POD; Finance can invoice using validated milestones and planned vs actual.
Templates & playbooks
Standardize intermodal operations with reusable templates that teams can run independently or as one integrated flow.
Lane template
Define a standard lane (Spain → port → sea → rail → truck) and generate legs, milestones, and documents.
Milestone mapping
Map mode-specific events into a shared KPI/SLA dictionary so reports stay comparable across legs.
Handoff checklist
Ensure documents, readiness signals, and validations are completed before switching to the next mode.
Exception playbook
Standardize actions for delays and disruptions (re-book, re-route, approvals) with a traceable audit trail.
Modular, yet unified
Start with a single mode, or orchestrate all modes together—SmartEngine keeps the operational truth consistent either way.
Independent modules
Use only what you need today, without losing the ability to scale later.
- Standalone air/road/sea/rail execution with shared UX patterns.
- Mode-specific milestones and workflows, standardized reporting.
- Role-based access and audit trail out of the box.
Coordinated platform
When modes connect, handoffs become automatic, traceable, and measurable.
- Unified timelines across legs and partners.
- Common KPI/SLA dictionary across modes and sites.
- Controlled integrations with monitoring, validation, and retries.
Control tower dashboards
One view for “what’s at risk”, “what’s late”, and “what needs action now”.
SLA heatmaps
See performance by lane, site, partner, and mode with a shared KPI/SLA dictionary.
Root-cause & audit trail
Events, reasons, and approvals make RCA fast—and keep governance intact.
Report packs
Standardize weekly/monthly reviews with reusable packs: KPIs, trends, top delays, and improvement actions.
Weekly Ops Review Pack 1) SLA performance by lane/site 2) Top delay reasons (Pareto) 3) At-risk shipments & action owners 4) Planned vs actual cost impact
Risk & exception alerting
Detect risks early with milestone time windows, then trigger tasks, notifications, and escalations.
- Time-window breaches (cut-off, gate-out, arrival) with reason codes.
- “Worst 10” views for lanes/sites/partners.
- Shareable links and CSV export with role-based access.

Platform modules
What WMS/TMS/OMS/FMS mean in practice—and how they work as one integrated operational platform.
Wave/pick/pack, staging, gate-out, readiness signals and exception handling—linked to transport milestones.
Planning, dispatch, milestones, delay risk management and POD—kept consistent across air/road/sea/rail.
Fleet (assets/drivers), capacity, cost control and planned vs actual—connected to financial operations and billing.
Change management, order lifecycle visibility and operational alignment with WMS/TMS timelines—so teams act on one truth.
Billing, cost allocation and profitability—based on actual operational events and validated milestones.
Integrated examples
The value comes from connected execution—not from separate screens and isolated metrics.
- An OMS change updates WMS work and re-aligns TMS planning with traceable events.
- WMS “ready/gate-out” signals automatically advance TMS milestones and SLA timers.
- FMS fleet updates improve ETA visibility and exception workflows across operations.
- Finance uses planned vs actual to invoice consistently and measure profitability by lane/site.
Module deep dive
Detailed explanations and realistic operational examples for WMS, TMS, OMS, and FMS—with multimodal transportation scenarios inside TMS.
WMS — Warehouse Management System (Depo Yönetim Sistemi)
WMS manages warehouse reality: inbound, picking, packing, staging, and gate-out—creating reliable “ready” signals for transportation.
- Work planning: waves, priorities, exceptions, and productivity views.
- Readiness: packing complete, documents ready, load closed, gate-out confirmed.
- Handoff: when WMS says “ready”, TMS milestones start and SLA timers become measurable.
TMS — Transportation Management System (Taşıma Yönetim Sistemi)
TMS orchestrates the legs of transportation: planning, dispatch, milestones, ETAs, exception management, POD and performance reporting.
SmartEngine keeps the same operational language across modes, so switching road ↔ air ↔ sea ↔ rail stays traceable and comparable.
Air example: time-window execution
Cut-off times, flight milestones, ULD/booking checks and “ready for uplift” validation. Delay reasons create tasks and alerts.
Road example: milk-run template → run execution
Recurring routes become runs; drivers execute with planned stops, ETA updates, and proof-of-delivery. Exceptions are standardized.
Sea example: port + voyage timeline
Gate-in, customs, loading, vessel departure/arrival and transshipment events tracked on one timeline, with comparable KPI/SLA.
Rail example: intermodal milestones
Train leg milestones and terminal events connect to the same shipment context—making multimodal reporting consistent.
OMS — Order Management System (Sipariş Yönetim Sistemi)
OMS is the source of change: orders, updates, cancellations and priorities. It keeps operations aligned with the latest intent.
- Change management with timeline: what changed, when, by whom, and why.
- Operational sync: changes cascade into WMS tasks and TMS plans.
- Governance: approvals and validations prevent inconsistent execution.
FMS — Fleet Management System (Filo Yönetim Sistemi)
FMS manages fleet execution: assets, drivers, utilization, costs and planned vs actual. It is often confused with “Finance”, so we keep it explicit.
- Capacity visibility: match runs to vehicles/drivers with controlled constraints.
- Operational cost control: fuel, overtime, subcontracting, and exceptions linked to events.
- Finance connection: billing and profitability can use validated execution milestones.
