Does Bay Logistics Services specialize in any way?

Will we need to purchase a Transportation Management System (TMS)?
Our investment in TMS is part of the savings of doing business with Bay Logistics Services. You will not need to purchase a Transportation Management System but will have access to the tracking, reporting and analysis that it provides via our Web site.
