The company is recognized by Global Trade for the versatility of its broad services portfolio that delivers significant improvements in overall supply chain performance. Transportation Insight's technology, advanced analytics, intellectual capital and hallmark consultative Co-managed Logistics® approach empower clients with integrated intelligence and next-generation supply chain control. A robust parcel platform underscores the 3PL's versatility to engineer multi-modal networks and architect e-commerce solutions for sustained competitive advantage for manufacturers, distributors and retailers.

"Transportation Insight works as an extension of our clients' teams, helping them transition their operations from B2B to e-commerce by leveraging industry knowledge, knowing key performance indicators and developing strategies for rapid growth," says Transportation Insight President and CEO Chris Baltz. "Using our integrated Enterprise Logistics solutions, we are able to reduce billing errors in our clients' parcel and freight operations through our rigorous auditing process, improve customer service with added multi-modal insight into service failures and performance gaps, and optimize the utilization of parcel and LTL, a critical factor in selling direct versus commercially to the customer. The technology and business expertise we bring to our customers foster improved operational efficiency and customer service because of the significantly improved visibility to increasingly complex supply chains. We are pleased to have been named a Leading 3PL by Global Trade magazine for the fifth consecutive year."
