Global Contract Logistics Report 2016 - Analysis, Technologies & Forecasts - Key Vendors: DSV, Ryder, Yusen Logistics - Research and Markets

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Contract Logistics 2016" report to their offering.

The report, Global Contract Logistics 2016, provides a comprehensive overview of the market including, for the first time in the series, a dedicated chapter on the adoption of technology throughout the industry.

Key findings:

• Before implementing technology solutions, LSPs must have a clear understanding of the information and data required at the strategic, tactical and operational level.
• Sophisticated technology systems are no longer reserved for those with the largest budgets. Even the smallest LSPs can implement effective technology solutions given the proper understanding of their requirements.
• With greater data sharing, traditional barriers between operation and support departments within companies have been reduced greatly. As a consequence, these new work flow processes throughout the entirety of the supply chain require new platforms.
• Transition from legacy systems will require a huge amount of investment and, in some cases, could realistically expect to cost millions of dollars, much or which may never be recovered.
• Successes for many LSPs rely heavily on the level of visibility they have within their own supply chains from procurement all the way through to final delivery.
