Transportation & Logistics

Overview

No matter how complex or simple the business, few client networks are easy to manage. DPO&Co has worked across industries to develop strong fact bases and meaningful insights that inform warehousing decisions and solve logistical challenges. We help clients balance the trade-off between bulk pricing / fewer stock-outs and JIT inventory / improved working capital. We also have deep experience collaborating with 3PLs to manage client truckload ordering behaviors, contract pricing, service quality, key performance indicators, and more. As a result, our clients receive better service and spend more time growing and managing other aspects of their business.

CASE EXAMPLES

  • Launched RFI to conduct external cost benchmarking
  • Conducted multiple interviews during the assessment to find any process improvements opportunity Develop short and long term implementation roadmap to both immediate benefits and policy / governance to ensure cost sustainability 

Impact and Results

  • Unlocked 15% cost savings opportunity by reallocating lanes and modes to more competitive supply base and allocation / load optimization
  • Rolled out communications and new process to instill better governance in the organization 
  • Identified a suitable TMS (Transportation Management Systems) and piloted logistics planning to improve logistics management efficiency
