AI-based transportation management and multi-enterprise network help organizations respond quickly to volatility and rising costs across the supply chain

Blue Yonder, the AI company for supply chain, has again been recognized as a Leader in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Transportation Management Systems (TMS), based on Ability to Execute and Completeness of Vision. This is the 19th consecutive time that Blue Yonder has secured this designation in the report.^{i, ii}

Blue Yonder is one of only two companies assessed as a Leader across the three Gartner Magic Quadrant reports covering Supply Chain Planning, Transportation Management Systems and Warehouse Management Systems.ⁱⁱⁱ Blue Yonder continues to solidify its position as a pioneer in the transportation management space, demonstrating remarkable growth and innovation. The company credits its success to its recently launched Cognitive Solutions, which are agentic, AI-driven and designed to operate at machine speed, scale, and precision. They enable supply chain teams and AI to seamlessly coordinate decisions and quickly refine workflows across the entire supply chain, from planning to execution.

Transportation management teams face growing pressure from tariffs and trade agreements, supply chain disruption caused by geopolitical events, increased costs for transporting goods and higher customer service expectations. By using AI and machine learning, Blue Yonder Transportation Management helps retailers, manufacturers, and logistics service providers identify potential areas for improvement and access real-time analytics to better meet customer needs. The Blue Yonder Network provides customers access to more than 172,000 global trading partners and supports over a billion transactions annually, helping improve real-time visibility and collaboration across the entire supply chain.

Blue Yonder believes its Transportation Management Solution stands out in three areas:

• AI-driven Cognitive Solutions that operate at machine speed, scale, and precision, enabling supply chain teams and AI to coordinate decisions and quickly refine workflows
• A modernized user experience that includes generative AI and Logistics Ops Agents
• Interoperability between Blue Yonder Transportation Management and Blue Yonder Network, helping connect transportation workflows with broader supply chain execution

"Transportation leaders face constant disruption," said Wayne Usie, chief strategy officer, Blue Yonder. "We believe this Gartner recognition reflects the investments Blue Yonder has made in AI, network connectivity and platform innovation. Blue Yonder Transportation Management gives customers the visibility, intelligence and flexibility to adapt quickly to change and act with confidence."

Blue Yonder Transportation Management complements Blue Yonder Warehouse Management, Order Management and Blue Yonder Production Planning, enabling customers to plan and execute across their supply chain from the first mile to the last.
