Managing a Seasonal Hazardous Material Surge
May 3, 2013
Solution: Dunavant's solution required execution of multiple strategies: 1. Work with primary carriers for additional HAZMAT capacity; 2. Reposition equipment to shift driver/capacity from points within 150-mile radius of product origin; 3. Engage Dunavant's vast network of partners to identify carriers who could potentially re-load our freight.
Results: 1. Our customer's urgent needs were fully addressed and the transportation of their HAZMAT product was handled in a way that exceeded their expectations; 2. DLG improved strategic partnerships with carriers; 3. DLG improved visibility and communication with our customer through reporting and lowered cost through more efficient routing.
