Leveraging Carriers Relationships to Overcome Key Transportation Challenges
Chip Overbey, senior vice president of strategic planning at Old Dominion Freight Line, explains the value that its continual investment in people, facilities, and equipment provides in today’s challenging freight marketplace.
Capacity constraints, driver shortages, and rising freight rates are just a few of the top challenges shippers are facing in today’s transportation environment.
Without a reliable, experienced less-than-truckload (LTL) carrier partner in their corner, these companies are left to navigate these and other complexities on their own. This is especially true for companies that operate in reaction mode, attempting to cover their last-minute loads on a transactional basis—and at a higher total cost.
Committed to continual investment in its people, facilities, and equipment, Old Dominion is helping its customers and business partners work through these issues and plan for the future. In this Insider Q&A, Overbey discusses the current transportation environment, explains how carriers are reacting to the market shifts, and reveals key strategies that Old Dominion uses to support shippers and carriers in any business condition.
