Unlocking Value: Is your 3PL Making the Right Investments to Help You?

Unlocking Value: Is your 3PL Making the Right Investments to Help You?

In this session, ITS Logistics CCO Josh Allen and guests discuss industry highlights, where shippers can find the most value from innovation and assets, and how a modern 3PL model can benefit shippers.

The last several years have challenged what it truly means to be a modern logistics provider. Supply chain disruptions and a flood of venture capital created a boom in freight tech—with some innovations being better than others. At the same time, economic headwinds and an oversaturation of capacity created tough times for asset-only providers and challenged traditional logistics business models. Modern 3PLs have had to adapt, combining investments in innovation and assets to maximize value for shippers. In this session, ITS Logistics CCO Josh Allen and guests will discuss industry highlights, where shippers can find the most value from innovation and assets, and how a modern 3PL model can benefit shippers.

Supply chains have become complex and difficult to manage.

Proactive management of today's complex supply chains is inherent with multiple challenges—integrating multiple data sources, external interruptions, and carrier delays. Supply chain resilience is vital from both a strategic and financial perspective. This session will address effective approaches to reduce supply chain risk and increase supplier ecosystem performance.

Digital Brokers are Dead, Long Live Digital Brokers: The Future of Digitally-Empowered Brokers

Learn how brokers can leverage digitally empowered brokerage models like the Convoy Platform to simplify freight execution, lower operating costs, and ultimately thrive in the fast-evolving trucking landscape.

The freight brokerage industry is undergoing dramatic changes, scaling through the pandemic years to $160 billion in total freight moved domestically. Technology has completely changed the game for carriers and brokers alike – empowering a new wave of entrepreneurial "app-centric" small carriers to manage their business through their phones and take ever more market share. For today's brokers, several questions loom: How can I tap into the pool of digitally enabled carriers to expand my capacity? How can I avoid the industry's rampant fraud? How can I lower my operating costs to stay competitive? This session will discuss how brokers can leverage digitally empowered brokerage models like the Convoy Platform to simplify freight execution, lower operating costs, and ultimately thrive in the fast-evolving trucking landscape.
