3PL Outsourcing Consulting Services

Français

This advisory service is specifically oriented to companies seeking to evaluate the economics, costs and benefits of outsourcing some or all of their distribution operations to a third party logistics service provider (3PL) or other distributor entity.  We can help your company evaluate its options and make the best decision based on all of the criteria to be considered.

3PL outsourcing advisory studies address the following types of questions:
3PL Request for Proposal
  • Should we consider outsourcing our warehousing and/or trucking operations to a 3PL service provider and why?
  • Which 3PL vendors are qualified to provide shared or dedicated warehousing services for companies in our industry?
  • Which 3PL vendors are capable of handling the value added services that we need to provide for our customers?
  • Should all of our operation(s) be outsourced or only specific regions, functions, and/or facilities?
  • Is it important to maintain internal control over specific aspects of the operation?
  • What are the short and long term economic impacts of outsourcing our distribution operation to a 3PL?
  • What are the risks and qualitative issues associated with outsourcing?
  • How do we develop a strong 3PL RFP document to tender services so that we can compare the pricing and service proposition on a true apples to apples basis?

To execute these studies, we use a proven approach to evaluating your current operations and defining the benchmark of where you can potentially be if we invest in improving the operation.  We develop bid packages for 3PL vendors and based on these responses we map out the long term economics of outsourcing.  We also assist throughout the supplier negotiation process to ensure you get the best value for your company.
