Why Choosing a Quality Carrier is Best for Your Budget

Partnering with a Quality Carrier

On a scale of 1-10, how important is partnering with a quality carrier to your supply chain? What factors are the most important to you and your shipping department? How much does a satisfied customer cost?

You may be asking yourself these questions on a daily basis when determining how to spend your freight dollars.

In a recent article, John Schulz from Logistics Management explained that in a year of rapidly rising rates and constricted capacity, shippers managed to adapt to a quickly changing transportation landscape through innovation, increased technology adoption, and improved partnerships.

What does that mean for you? Who will remain committed to their promise of quality and continue to find ways to manage the evolving market to deliver exceptional service?

Quality LTL carriers are those that are able to control costs and use rate increases to drive efficiencies in shippers’ supply chains.

Quality is synonymous with value. What does it mean to be Quality Driven?

• Deliver on promises
• Relentless commitment to the safety of staff
• Incomparable customer service
• Repeatable processes that minimize variance and improve consistency
• Diligent measurement and analysis so that reliability and efficiency in all aspects of service can continuously be improved
• Maintenance of a strong public image through the support of the less fortunate, social responsibility, and safety of the people with whom we share the road

Sometimes it may go unnoticed day to day or week to week, but the value of your freight dollar goes hand in hand with the quality service you expect.

There is significant value in consistency accomplished by a relentless focus on quality. A commitment that is hard to put a price on.
