Transportation management has a huge impact on business performance, and many companies are reaping the benefits of managed transportation, transportation management software and outsourced transportation. 80 percent of Fortune 500 companies and 96 percent of Fortune 100 companies use 3PLs for their transportation and supply chain management.
A 3PL helps simplify the process and makes your supply chain consistent, solid and unified. A good third-party logistics provider obtains a wide network of qualified carriers who they work with for years. This ensures you will get lower rates and faster transit times. PLS also thinks about ways to optimize your shipments in the most cost-efficient way.
Integrated systems and technology let 3PL’s provide complete visibility into loads and freight management. You will get regular reporting and analysis to keep track of your transportation management.
A reputable 3PL has tools like a robust transportation management system (TMS), tracking tools, etc. While managing all of the transportation processes on your own, you would spend a big part of your budget on a TMS. Using a 3PL lets you access management and reporting all in one system with all the necessary features.
A transportation management provider has relationships with qualified carriers which means you will be able to find capacity even during your peak shipping season. A 3PL is familiar with the complex regulations and can handle fluctuating shipment schedules. A 3PL has the ability to handle regularly scheduled shipments, plus any expedited shipments, across all modes and lanes. A 3PL is scalable and can find new opportunities for cost savings like backhauls and LTL combinations.
A transportation management provider has buying power and will receive competitive pricing on freight moves. A 3PL will help you negotiate lower GRIs and/or fuel surcharges. In most cases, a 3PL can create opportunities for cost savings for companies that have been running their own shipping departments.
