Put the Brakes on Transportation Costs
Energy prices and global processes - including multi-location production and step-wise replenishment - are
driving logistics costs sky high.
As a result, transportation costs often overtake production costs - especially when dealing with heavy weights,
high order volumes, carrier capacity, and distributed supply and demand chains. Transportation costs that increase
more quickly than the revenue of products are an even greater concern for executives.
