Chainalytics’ Survey Forecasts a Tightening Transportation Capacity Market

Many companies are under pressure to dramatically reduce transportation costs while maintaining high levels of carrier service. This will become even more challenging in the next 24 months. Chainalytics survey results indicate that 82% of respondents categorize transportation capacity as “easily available” today. But by December 2010, nearly half of all respondents believe capacity will be somewhat to very tight.

Nestle will discuss how it continues to benefit from its transportation procurement events, including not only realizing rate reductions and reducing its carrier base, but also realigning networks, improving service levels and strengthening carrier relationships.

The webinar panel participants include moderator Paul Page, Editorial Director for The Journal of Commerce; Joe Lombardo, Group Manager, Transportation, Nestle USA; Gary Girotti, Vice President, Transportation Practice, Chainalytics, LLC; and Paul Bacon, Product Manager, Transportation Bid Collaboration, i2 Technologies. Presentations will be followed by a live question-and-answer session.
