ALPHARETTA, GA – Datatrac Corporation (www.datatrac.com), the leading solutions provider for the expedited freight industry, is announcing the successful launch of specialized Shipper Consolidation Services. Through this program, shippers are achieving new levels of operational efficiency and cost reduction for their supply chain fulfillment programs.
Leveraging its nationwide network of carriers, Datatrac provides shippers with a consistent service and technology platform for their target delivery markets. Unlike existing service options, the program provides shippers with cost-effective distribution solutions in markets currently served only by major consolidators. Datatrac’s specialized services help shippers develop a customized carrier network by focusing on three key areas:
- Converting back office systems of their current carriers to ensure uniform technical capabilities across all service areas
- Helping shippers identify additional or replacement carriers able to meet their technology requirements
- Unifying disparate shipping data into a single, concise flow through the powerful Datatrac network
"We are currently working with a several large shippers in the process of consolidating to fewer carriers,” said Garland Duvall, Datatrac’s Chief Executive Officer. “In each case, the shipper’s objective is to place their shipments exclusively with carriers utilizing Datatrac distribution technology. In just one example, a large, national shipper saved well over $40 million in annual cost by reducing labor requirements, loss/damage claims and insurance premiums.”
Independent couriers who have demonstrated their commitment by being certified as Datatrac Distribution Readyä are playing a strategic role in working with shippers to service their customized distribution networks. At the same time, those providers are benefitting from additional revenue opportunities under this program. “Shortly after we began providing distribution service, Datatrac was ready to connect us with a major retail shipper, “commented Danny Fox of Alliance1 in Nashville, TN. “Quite simply, this relationship is driving new revenue that we wouldn’t be getting without distribution capability.”
For shippers who need to move their goods to market faster with better visibility and lower cost, Datatrac Shipper Consolidation Services are providing easy access to the right distribution logistics solution.
