Capabilities

Given rate structures and business constraints, we can perform a mode optimization analysis of your shipments.  We can consider less-than-truckload (LTL), full-truckload (FTL), and railroad (Intermodal).  Our suite of optimization tools will find the most cost effective mode of transportation for all your shipments while honoring all service requirements.  Shipping and delivery dates, capacities such as weight and volume, dock hours, and equipment types are some examples of the constraints we can adhere to while minimizing your overall transportation costs. Once our analysis demonstrates our ability to reduce your overall cost we can then implement an automated production solution.

Customers who utilize our mode optimization experience improved efficiencies that empower their transportation staff to make more cost effective decisions. We have a proven track record of impacting our customer's bottom line through lowering costs on a daily basis.

Mode Optimization

Scenario 1

All orders are shipping into or shipping from the facility via LTL. Total cost for Scenario 1 is the sum of the individual LTL shipments cost = $3,225.

Scenario 2

Two orders are consolidated into 1 FTL load, one order will move Intermodal, and the final order will remain LTL due to it's existing low cost. Total cost of Scenario 2 = $2,075 for a Savings of $1,150 over Scenario 1.
