A little luck is always welcome by the transportation manager. Diesel costs on the world market just declined and that is a Godsend for the transportation industry. This was a lucky transportation solution.
But structural changes are what the smart companies are looking for. They want something that is a long lasting transportation solution. They are interested in reducing both costs and decreasing their carbon foot prints.
It is well known by experts that diesel costs will continue to fluctuate and continue to rise in the future. New refineries or bio-diesel are the only things that can alleviate tight production capacity.
Tom Moore a respected transportation consultant discusses these points as he responds to an article in the Wall Street Journal reporting on Diesel prices. You can find that article at http://www.transportatioinoptimization.com/twoblog.asp and click on the article "Wall Street Journal reports on diesel prices".
Look at what well-run logistics operations are doing. Kraft is using new technologies to convert requirements into truckload shipments. P&G uses new optimization systems that not only cut costs but also reduces global warming. These companies stay abreast of the latest technologies to maximize efficiencies to find the best transportation solutions.
The technology that Kraft started using is particularly fascinating. It is AutoVLB (Automatic Vehicle Load Building) from Transportation l Warehouse Optimization in Franklin, Tennessee (just outside of Nashville). What this allowed Kraft to do was operate with much bigger load factors and even more importantly guided loaders in how to construct the optimized load. This accomplishes two things for Kraft transportation solutions: huge cost savings and real structural changes because they are reducing a large part of their carbon footprint.
Thomas Moore and his associates have worked with the best of the best. Procter & Gamble, and other top 50 Fortune 500 companies are among their client list. More importantly, P & G is a long-term client (Since 1992). They have saved them millions of dollars with warehouse and transportation consulting solutions.
