Strategic Acquisition Strengthening Market Position
In March 2025, Descartes Systems Group, a Canadian logistics technology firm, acquired 3GTMS in a deal with undisclosed financial terms. This acquisition was aimed at boosting Descartes' transportation management capabilities in North America by integrating 3GTMS's cloud-native planning and routing platform. The move also expands Descartes' carrier network while enhancing the range of products offered. 3G Transportation Management, based in the US, specializes in transportation management system software that oversees the entire transportation lifecycle.

Emerging Innovations Fueling Growth in Terminal Management Systems
Industry leaders are focusing on developing innovative, cloud-native, and modular terminal operating systems that improve scalability, digitalization, and operational flexibility. These modular systems, made up of independent Terminal Operating Modules (TOM), allow terminals to implement solutions tailored to their specific needs and pace of digital transformation.
For example, in September 2025, German tech startup Omoqo GmbH launched its modular, cloud-based TOM system, developed with input from terminal operators. Supported by Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG (HHLA) and in partnership with Cargo-Terminal Lehmann GmbH and Co. KG, TOM digitizes critical container-handling workflows, enhances transparency, and reduces manual processes without requiring a full system replacement. The implementation at Cargo-Terminal Lehmann was completed in eight weeks, achieving notable improvements in data quality and process visibility. Omoqo plans to expand the system's features further based on ongoing operator feedback.
