PINC Solutions launches thought provoking webcast
to discuss transportation myopia
(1888PressRelease) The webcast is the second of a
series focused on supply chain visibility. ALAMED
A, CA - PINC Solutions launched today a thought
provoking webcast featuring Gartner analyst and
VP of supply chain research, Dwight Klappich and
Chief Technology Officer and founder of PINC
Solutions, Dr. Aleks Gollu. The webcast is called
Transportation Myopia and is the second webcast
of a series focused on supply chain visibility.
According to independent research, an average
trailer shipment takes three days to move from
one facility to the next with only eight hours on
the road. Simply put, for 80 of the shipment
time, the trailer is idling at a distribution
center or manufacturing plant. This idle time
typically results from trailer status delays and
information inaccuracies along the supply chain.
Gartner lead analyst, Dwight Klappich, and PINC's
CTO, Dr. Aleks Gollu, will discuss how taking a
wider view of the transportation function can
help shippers and trading partners unbundle
hidden savings and inefficiencies. Viewers will
learn how enterprises are focusing on
transportation assets across their entire network
of facilities rather than just on the road how
companies are closing the loop in shipment
planning and accelerating order fulfillment
cycles and how trading partners are
collaborating to reduce information latency about
shipments resulting in lower transportation
costs. To watch the webcast, please visit
