The CALIDUS systems are developed and owned by OBS Logistics. This allows us to provide solutions based on innovative commercial models from a conventional license and services approach where you house and manage the system through to a fully managed service provided by OBS Logistics from our data centres. One such commercial approach is called ‘Solution as a Service’ whereby we can provide the option of a fully managed service which is paid for through a single regular charge based on system usage, payable as the system delivers benefits.

So whatever the specifics of your particular TMS requirement or the approach you wish to take to procuring the solution, the next few pages should confirm for you that the CALIDUS TMS from OBS Logistics is worthy of further consideration.
