Transportation Optimization for Electronics Manufacturer​

Manufacturer optimizes transportation spend and execution.

An electronics manufacturer enlisted SCPI to tackle rising transportation costs driven by inefficient lane and mode selection, excessive accessorial changes, and limited freight visibility.

This project resulted in an optimized mode and lane strategy with targeted rebid opportunities, stronger shipment execution controls, and a managed transportation operating model delivering improved annual freight savings while improving compliance and inbound visibility.
