THE PROBLEMS

Transportation & Freight Management services – Supply chain costs represents a large portion of transportation. In some business units it’s as much as 90% and in many its tens of millions of dollars per year. Supply chain executives need to know that the prices they pay are low and the service their transportation function provides is high.

These goals are submerged in environments battered by a multitude of day-to-day operational complexities.

• A customer needs shipments expedited because the inventory was previously unavailable

• An order needs to be split between numerous facilities

• A carrier has early cut-off times

• The equipment cannot handle 40,000 pounds

• Dimensional Weight charges are too much to operate and so on...
