Logistics — Optimization
We are committed to making the best use of technology possible. From receiving your orders via EDI, through pick verification and shipment processing, to sending ASN's and shipment confirmations, our integrated technology ensures accuracy, reliability, efficiency and security throughout the process.
CRL has strategic alliances with multiple traditional transportation companies. We work with LTL and truckload carriers that offer optimal service levels for various shipment sizes and destinations. You can take advantage of the volume discounts and attentive service we receive from our transportation partners. Due to our strong partnerships, these carriers work with us to provide exceptional levels of service to our customers.
Our Logistics Optimization process includes:
- Preparation & management of carrier bidding packages
- Rate & Contract negotiations
- Negotiation of truckload carrier services & rates
- Issue routing guides for vendors
- Import & Export transportation services
- Negotiation of small package & express carrier services
Whatever your long-term goals, CRL will enable you to develop an optimal transportation plan to run your day-to-day operations more efficiently—and with better results. You'll be well-equipped to make the best resource-to-shipment assignments, adapt quickly to changes and events in real time and strengthen communication with your trading partners and carriers.
Depending on the number of loads you are dispatching every day, there are a large number of possibilities for matching specific drivers to specific loads. CRL will review with you driver-to-load combinations in real time as orders come into the system. The results are reduced empty miles, increased daily resource utilization and higher driver satisfaction. This way, you keep your customers satisfied, reduce driver turnover and increase profits.
