Overview
MercuryGate TMS is a transportation management platform that centralizes freight planning, execution, settlement, and visibility in a single system. It natively supports all transportation modes -- parcel, LTL, truckload, air, ocean, rail, and intermodal -- so shippers, third-party logistics providers, brokers, and carriers can manage domestic and cross-border movements without juggling mode-specific point tools. Founded in 2000 and headquartered in Cary, North Carolina, MercuryGate was acquired by Körber Supply Chain Software in August 2024; following Körber's 2025 rebrand, the product is now also marketed as Infios Transportation Management, with the same underlying capabilities.
The platform pairs rate and load optimization with execution workflows such as carrier tendering, dock scheduling, and real-time shipment tracking, then closes the loop with freight audit, settlement, and analytics. A configurable, point-and-click rules engine lets teams encode routing guides, business rules, and exception handling without heavy custom development, and a control-tower view surfaces in-transit status, KPIs, and disruption alerts across the transportation lifecycle. Business intelligence draws on carrier and customer scorecards, rate indices, predictive ETA, and reporting to support continuous cost and service improvement.
MercuryGate is positioned at the mid-market-to-enterprise end of the TMS spectrum and is ERP-agnostic, with pre-built connectors to common ERP systems plus REST APIs, EDI, and file-based integration for everything else. Buyers consistently cite its multimodal breadth, optimization, and freight audit as strengths; reviewers also note that the platform is feature-dense, that implementation and configuration can be complex, and that work outside native functionality can add cost.
