Abstract
The development of technology in the present era has greatly impacted transportation industry and transportation management solutions. Transportation management system (TMS), especially in the transport of frozen goods, is very important in opening up the international market. In Thailand and Japan, frozen food is very popular and has high demand from the world market. Studying the potential impact of modern transportation management systems on increasing the efficiency of frozen food delivery between Thailand and Japan requires careful consideration and analysis to find solutions and improvements to the system. Transportation management system (TMS) to be able to work efficiently in complex and constantly changing situations. This study aims to investigate the potential impact of modern Transportation Management Systems (TMS) on enhancing the efficiency of frozen food transportation between Thailand and Japan. This research uses a narrative review method, gathering data from reputable academic publications, industry reports, and legal documents. The selection criteria are determined by considering variables such as relevance, feasibility, and credibility of the advanced transportation management system. Several benefits are associated with using sophisticated Transportation Management Systems (TMS), such as improved route optimization, real-time tracking capabilities, cost savings, reduced transit times, and enhanced product standards. Although implementing complex Transportation Management Systems (TMS) offers clear benefits, there are still challenges related to technology integration, training, and initial investment costs. However, sustainable benefits such as increased financial profitability and customer satisfaction outweigh these challenges. Sophisticated Transportation Management Systems (TMS) become catalysts for significant changes in the international frozen food distribution industry between Thailand and Japan. These systems provide innovative solutions to long-standing challenges, facilitating greater flexibility and environmental consideration for trading partners. Stakeholders, including producers, distributors, and policymakers, have the opportunity to utilize findings from this evaluation to make informed decisions regarding the implementation and improvement of Transportation Management Systems (TMS) within their operations. This article presents a review of the use of advanced Transportation Management Systems (TMS) within the specific scope of international frozen food trade between Thailand and Japan. The response to significant research needs provides valuable insights that stakeholders can use in this sector.
