In today's global transportation and logistics environment you need an experienced and qualified staff to manage your transportation and logistics functions; a staff that knows your needs and products. In short, a staff that portrays common sense in your transportation management and functions. So...the question is where do you find this staff? How about in your own office!
Since the late 1980s, many companies have turned to third party logistics providers (3PLs) to manage their logistics and transportation functions due to a major shortage of experienced transportation and logistics personnel. Today, however, inexperience has begun to make its way into the third party logistics business as well. Few colleges offer transportation and logistics degrees and the current "crop" of experienced transportation and logistics personnel are moving on to management positions or getting out of the field altogether.
What you're left with is inexperienced and usually unqualified personnel managing your freight. This leads to misrouted shipments, higher costs, and less reliability in your shipping and supply chain.
This is where Sextro Consulting can help. Whether you are a domestic shipper or a large international shipper, Sextro Consulting can help take the waste out of your shipping and educate your current staff or 3PL in becoming lean and efficient. Sextro Consulting focuses on educating your team, not managing your transportation and logistics functions.
Why hire a 3PL to manage your logistics when you can do it yourself for a fraction of the cost? You will realize better control and better visibility. Sextro Consulting can show you and your logistics staff how. Sextro Consulting will train your staff in basic concepts that will help you cut costs, provide better service, and allow you and your staff to manage your logistics just as well or better than what the 3PLs can do.
