Freight costs average 10% of the cost of goods sold, so logistics teams are challenged to balance costs and service to maintain a competitive edge while enabling growth and remaining flexible. Not every shipper has a team with the skills and technology to handle the challenges and market volatility.
This webinar will discuss the pros and cons of alternative outsourced logistics models (3PL, etc.) and introduce the concept of Logistics as a Service (LaaS). By outsourcing transportation management, you gain a team of experts with a wealth of competitive transportation data to optimize costs and increase service levels.
What you will learn:
- Why shippers are outsourcing logistics and transportation
- Alternative managed services models
- Key considerations: Cost, service and control
