About us
Creating Trucking Software Solutions for the Transportation Industry
Transportation is complex, and your software should simplify it — not add to the burden. Since 1975, Tailored Logistics Solutions (TLS) has focused on one mission: helping trucking companies, freight brokers, and intermodal operators run smarter, faster, and more profitably.
We are a family-owned business with nearly 50 years of experience in transportation technology. Unlike generic software providers, we are trucking logistics software experts who understand the day-to-day challenges of dispatch, billing, compliance, and customer service. Our solutions are designed to connect your processes end-to-end so you can scale with confidence.
Our History
TLS is a family business, perhaps like your family history. Larry Ellis started providing trucking software back in 1975 on proprietary hardware. His son, Brian Ellis, joined him in 1984 as the second generation of software was being developed for the DOS (later to become Windows) and Unix-run computers. Tailored is now the third-generation software running through web browsers, hosted by TLS or on your own server.
As for our staff, TLS is made up of people who have been providing trucking software solutions to the Transportation industry for an average of over 25 years each. We can help your company with our experience!
Our Mission
Our mission is to “transform the workplace for the transportation professional” by using the latest technology integrated into an easy-to-use system. This simple design makes it easy to learn, along with online documentation and videos, to keep your training costs down and reduce the total cost of ownership of your trucking software. Trucking software solutions are all we have ever provided.
