Supply chain managers’ traditional focus on increasing efficiency by reducing costs, for example on transactional line items such as freight rates, is no longer delivering significant benefits. However, an innovative transportation management partner can deliver ground-breaking ways to increase efficiency previously out of purview, because of their broader and deeper experience. These include mastering trends in changing consumer habits, a greater focus on technology and user experience (UX), and the need for increased visibility of inventory’s availability and location in real time. This white paper sets out the argument that supply chain managers need to move beyond issues of rates and capacity, and instead allow a third-party provider help them explore advances in technology and supply chain engineering that offer thought processes and optimization techniques that better utilize what’s available.
