Indian & US software giants team-up for supply tech solutions

US-based software company Blume Global has entered an alliance with Indian software major Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) for the creation of supply tech solutions. With this partnership, both TCS and Blume Global seek to advance supply chain technology solutions globally.

The two companies plan to disseminate orchestration, transportation management, and supply chain visibility solutions in the North American, European, and Asian markets.

TCS will enable its customers in hi-tech, transportation, logistics, and industrial manufacturing verticals that leverage Blume Global solutions and drive services for their customers. In turn, Blume Global will promote TCS’ IT, business services, and solutions to its customer base.

“We are excited to partner with TCS and tap their immense knowledge of the industry,” said Pervinder Johar, CEO of Blume Global. “The last two years have brought our global supply chain issues to the surface, highlighting the pressing need for efficiency. And this partnership is part of the solution in equipping service providers with the proper tools needed to improve operations,” he added.

Arun Prabhakar, VP & Global Head, HiTech & Professional Services Business Unit at TCS, said: “With our deep domain knowledge, technology expertise, and Blume Global’s digital solutions, we will help customers achieve superior business outcomes and drive growth”.

TCS is now helping its customers achieve their business objectives by leveraging strategic partnerships. They will have access to Blume’s network of logistics providers and extensive data curated over the last 27 years.

Blume Logistics builds a strong network for logistics bidding, tracking, event recording, Proof of Delivery (POD) verification, and settlement initiation that connects carriers with first-and last-mile drayage for real-time event and cost tracking, from the ocean to rail to the long haul.

Blume’s Asset Management enables motor carriers, and ocean carriers, to make the optimal decisions to maximise supply availability while lowering costs and empty miles.
