Defined as ‘handling an operation
that involves providing labor and materials being supplied as needed’
Third-party
logistics or “3pl” is a growing trend among
manufacturers and distributors for the following competitive
advantages:
- Provides our clients the flexibility to expand and contract
inventory levels based on their industry’s specific
needs since the space and labor requirements are activity-based.
- By
utilizing our technology, clients are able to redirect
much of their technology expenses as related to the
supply chain.
- In
many cases our invoicing can match ‘your world’.
If that equates to by the piece, bundle, each, pallet,
or hundred-weight – so be it!
- By
outsourcing your supply chain functions, more resources
are available to focus on your core business. This
can possibly lower or eliminate capital expenditures
associated with equipment and facilities as well.

If
outsourcing your logistics needs is something you would like
to consider, there are a few things to remember.
 |
- The
3pl will become a partner in this venture, do you trust
them?
- Are
they financially sound and stable?
- Have they proven their experience and a match for your needs?
- Do
they have the technology to satisfy your requirements?
