Transportation Management

Establish can quickly and effectively digest existing transportation costs and processes and future demand to design management programs that encompass all aspects of the traffic function; from mission and configuration through carrier selection and rate negotiation. The transportation solutions we develop are ultimately driven by the goals of our clients and the requirements of the markets they serve.

Within a short period of time — four to eight weeks — we can:
  • Benchmark and review your transportation system.
  • Survey and benchmark your primary and secondary freight costs.
  • Analyze effectiveness of modes and carriers.
  • Analyze and compare public warehouse outbound consolidation systems.
  • Develop improvement programs for reducing costs and/or improving service.
  • Negotiate rates and identify best carriers (ocean container rates, LTL, TL, parcel and specialized carriers)
    • The cost to transport finished goods from plant through warehouse facilities and on to the customer continues to be the largest single cost element of logistics. Our transportation solutions — developed without losing sight of this fact — address issues within the transportation function at their epicenter and are capable of being implemented throughout your organization of traffic professionals, distribution facilities and carriers.
