Some Helpful Resources To Help You Manage Your Transportation Spend In 2016

If you're wondering what’s ahead this year for the economy and the logistics industry, we have some useful resources for you. First, each year some supply chain publications ask me to join their panel of experts in issuing our annual industry predictions. Here are excerpts from some of those publications.

• First, take a look at our excerpt from the "Trucking Executive Commentary" section that's featured in the Journal of Commerce 2016 Annual Review and Outlook magazine. You can get insights from other experts on the Journal’s website as well. 
  
  
• Second, watch the video from Supply Chain Quarterly where I share insights about where shipping rates are heading in 2016. There are 18 experts in this series about transportation; I encourage you to watch and learn from each of them.
  
  
• Our Predictable Surprises white paper shows you how to anticipate unwanted surprises before they happen, and also includes practical examples of how companies have strategically reduced their transportation costs.
  
  
• Last but not least, we encourage you to listen to the interview with award-winning economist Gary Shilling. His forecast for 2016 and beyond is crucial to your business decision-making process.
