What We Do

Each client has business requirements and circumstances that require a tailored approach and unique set of deliverables, but our fundamental approach and project steps follow a consistent pattern of discovery, innovation, and implementation to accomplish our client’s core objectives.

Strategic Initiatives

Audit supply chain logistics operations to identify gaps and cost drivers and define a competitive strategy. These initiatives focus on asset utilization and investment, such as 

  • The location of distribution points relative to suppliers, manufacturing and customers to optimize costs and improve service.
  • Integrating supply chains acquisitions and mergers and across divisions to find synergies and improve performance.  
  • Logistics outsourcing to focus on core competencies or enable scalable growth by leveraging the expertise, purchasing power, and IT investments of 3PL service providers. 
  • 3PLR works extensively with 3PLs to develop growth strategies based on capabilities and market opportunities.
