Problem
Planning and execution systems frequently diverge, causing lifecycle confusion and avoidable rework.
IronKernel Platform
TMS: Load Lifecycle and Planning
Trip/Stop migration is staged with quote-to-delivery lifecycle support for multi-stop and partial/LTL workflows.
Capability
End-to-end lifecycle from quote through delivery/completion.
How it works
- 1 Create lifecycle-aligned load record.
- 2 Apply sequencing and execution planning context.
- 3 Carry lifecycle state into dispatch and completion.
Operational outcomes
- Improved continuity from planning through completion.
- Clearer lifecycle state for operations and analytics.
Integration boundaries
- TMS↔CMMS Fleet Integration
- TMS↔Crew Personnel Integration
- TMS↔YMS Yard Coordination

Solution routes that reuse this feature
Open these solution and feature-map routes to test this behavior in end-to-end buyer workflows (4).
Commercial to execution
Outcome: Converted commercial records move into execution with less re-entry and clearer ownership.
Commercial handoff friction drops when conversion and execution planning are connected by shared identifiers.
Maintenance and dispatchability
Outcome: Asset maintenance posture and dispatchability context remain visible through execution windows.
Maintenance posture remains actionable when dispatchability and work execution share the same readiness context.
Dispatch confidence
Outcome: Dispatch decisions are anchored in shared readiness and asset state before assignment.
Dispatch decisions are stabilized when readiness, credentials, and asset state are checked before assignment.
Yard throughput
Outcome: Site execution is coordinated through shared gate, dock, and appointment workflows.
Gate, dock, and appointment behavior stays coordinated when yard workflows are linked to dispatch context.
