# Guides for selecting and changing a TMS

A software evaluation is more useful when the team can test a real load, name its nonnegotiable handoffs, and compare evidence in the same format. Use the guide that fits your next decision.

1. [Trucking TMS buyer's guide](/resources/guides/trucking-tms-buyers-guide/): define outcomes, build a demo script, and compare proof.
2. [Printable TMS RFP checklist](/resources/guides/tms-rfp-checklist/): ask the same specific questions of each vendor.
3. [North American TMS checklist](/resources/guides/north-american-tms/): test US and Canadian carrier handoffs, time zones, currencies, and source data.
4. [TMS migration checklist](/resources/guides/tms-migration-checklist/): map data, ownership, testing, and cutover.

RunaboutX is available to fleets. Use these guides to assess your workflow and prepare your onboarding questions. See the [trucking TMS overview](/tms/trucking/).
