  4. Introduction Overview Agencies are looking for ways to lower their transportation costs and streamline transportation processes. New technologies and the Internet have transformed the way shippers and transportation service providers (TSPs) manage transportation processes. GSA, Federal Supply Service (FSS) is taking advantage of new technologies and the power of the Internet to develop TMSS, a comprehensive online freight and household goods transportation management system for Federal civilian agencies. TMSS replaces the Interagency Transportation Management System (ITMS), GSA’s previous transportation management system. The first module of TMSS encompassed the core components of ITMS including key processes such as “Cost Comparisons” and “Rate Filings”. Some enhancements such as a “Customer Registration” process that provides a self-serve facility for registering to use TMSS were included in the first TMSS module. The “Electronic Bill of Lading (BL)” and “Online Shipment Booking” modules were released mid April 2004. The "Complete Shipments" module became effective in May 2005. This module adds a significant number of new features to TMSS' functionality including pre-shipment survey specifications, accessorial service amendments, request for new truck by TSP, and data entry of the complete shipment and weight ticket facts. Processes such as Pre & Post Audit, and Payment will be added to TMSS incrementally as they are developed. Additional reports will be added to the reporting module to support the new processes.

  5. Introduction Background Through fiscal year 1994, the transportation management function of GSA was funded by appropriation. For fiscal year 1995 and beyond, Congress determined that certain GSA functions, including the transportation management function, should no longer be funded by direct appropriation, but rather through reimbursement from Federal activities using GSA services. GSA’s fiscal year 1995 appropriation bill was enacted without any appropriation to support transportation management functions. Accordingly, GSA began charging for freight and household goods services. Centralized Household Goods Traffic Management Program(CHAMP) CHAMP is an efficient and economical GSA household goods (HHG) traffic management program for Federal civilian agencies. The program's primary document is the GSA Household Goods Tender of Service (HTOS). The HTOS provides a uniform basis for buying household goods transportation through its application, rules, and accessorial services. TSP approval, price negotiation, and TSP performance measurements are basic components in the household goods program. All TSPs that participate in CHAMP must meet GSA's strict approval and quality control standards. CHAMP saves agencies an average of approximately 52 percent off commercial rates. There are over 250 TSPs, both large and small, participating in the GSA domestic and international HHG program. Authorization to use TMSS for CHAMP shipments Existing or new customers that use TMSS for HHG shipments can register online. TSPs participating in the GSA CHAMP program are required to remit a 2.5% IFF for domestic HHG shipments and a 1.5% IFF for international shipments to GSA on a quarterly basis. Customers do not need to sign an agreement to use TMSS for HHG shipments. Freight Management Program (FMP) FMP is an efficient and economical freight program for Federal civilian agencies. The program's primary document is the GSA Standard Tender of Service (STOS). The STOS establishes the rates, rules, and charges that TSPs must use to conduct business with Federal civilian agencies. Use of GSA’s STOS relieves Federal agencies of any need to (a) conduct extensive research and analysis of individual TSP tenders and tariffs to determine the most favorable charges, and (b) create, for an individual agency’s/bureau’s/location’s use, a set of rates, rules, and charges for transportation services. FMP saves agencies an average of approximately 45 percent off commercial rates. There are over 650 TSPs, both large and small, participating in the GSA freight program. Authorization to use TMSS for freight shipments Existing or new customers that have a signed agreement on file with GSA may register to use TMSS online. Following the registration, GSA’s Program Management Office (PMO) will approve the TMSS request online, and grant access to the user.A copy of the funding agreement is available by clicking on the “Agency Freight Agreement” link on the TMSS Home Page or from the GSA Atlanta office at (404) 331-3133. The IFF for freight shipments is 4% of the total transportation charges. Federal agencies are required to remit the 4% IFF to GSA on a quarterly basis.   Transportation Management Services Solution (TMSS)

  8. Chapter 1: Getting Started New Customer Registration Process The customer online registration process is used for new customers (agencies) requesting access to TMSS. A customer is a registered Agency/Bureau/Location. One or more business users who intend to conduct business in TMSS from this Agency/Bureau/Location are registered users of the customer. Thus, a customer registration is required ONCE only at the Agency/Bureau/Location level. After initial registration, business users can be added and will be associated with the Agency/Bureau/Location. Process flow for registration Customers can access the registration form on the TMSS Website without any prior prerequisites. The “New Federal Customer?” registration link is located on the right side of the TMSS Home page. Transportation Management Services Solution (TMSS)

  9. Chapter 1: Getting Started New Customer Registration The “Customer Registration” screen will automatically be displayed when the user clicks on “New Federal Customer?” on the TMSS Home Page. New customers are required to fill out basic information such as: The user information (individual who is registering), agency details including the contact person, his/her information, and a valid Government email address. All fields in red are required for registration. Drop down menus are provided for the “Customer Name” field and the “Bureau Name” field. Agency and Bureau numeric codes are assigned by the Department of Treasury. Drop Down Menu Provides Customer Agency Names And Codes Drop Down Menu Provides Bureau Names and Codes Drop Down Menu Password Hint Selection (continued on next page) The user is required to enter a “Password” and select a “Password hint question” for security of the forgotten password function. Passwords are case sensitive, this means that if the Password contains capital letters, the user must type them as capital letters to log on. If not, the attempt will be unsuccessful. Only three unsuccessful attempts are allowed before the user ID must be reset by a Group Administrator (GA) or GSA Systems Administrator (SA). Users may enter the UserID and click on “Forgot Password” if they forget the password. Once the last name and correct answer to the password hint are entered, TMSS will automatically display a screen that will allow the user to change the “Password”. The user may change passwords as frequently as necessary. Transportation Management Services Solution (TMSS)

  10. Chapter 1: Getting Started New Customer Registration New users must complete the required “Authorized Official Information” (fields in red). The Authorizing Official is generally the supervisor or the individual that signed the GSA funding agreement, or someone with authority to authorize transportation shipments and/or issue transportation documents; it is up to the customer to decide. Any registered Business User (regular user) will have authorization to perform routine transportation business EXCEPTprofile and user maintenance. . (continuation of registration form from previous page) Drop Down Menu Lists States Drop Down Menu Lists Countries After Form Is Complete “Click” Save. Once the information is saved, an email notification is sent to the user. The request is retained in a “pending approval” queue to be approved or rejected by GSA’s PMO. If approved, a UserID is sent to the new user via email. If rejected the user is notified via email. The user can now access the system using the newly issued UserID and Password. The new user should change the Password when they receive the email notification. In addition, any information provided during the registration process can be updated by a user assigned GA privileges. Transportation Management Services Solution (TMSS)

  11. Chapter 1: Getting Started New Customer Registration – Email Notification Customers are issued a 8 or 9 character (alpha-numeric) UserID with a codification structure as 4709TS02, where 47 is the agency code for General Services Administration, 09 is the bureau code for Federal Supply Service, TS are the initials of Tami Sims, 02 indicates that Tami Sims is the 2nd UserID created for the initials TS in GSA/FSS. If a new user with the same initials were added to GSA/FSS the new UserID would be 4709TS03. There are 99 consecutive running serial numbers within an agency bureau for the same set of initials. For users who do not have a middle initial, the first & last name initials are used. Dear Tami Sims New User ID 4709TS02 • Notifications on completion of an event are sent via email. Key events that trigger emails are: • Notify PMO when a new customer has registered • Notify new customer user on approval • Notify new customer user on rejection • User forgets a password and requests resetting • Notify customer on change/resetting of password Transportation Management Services Solution (TMSS)
