Business Problem
A west coast snack food company on with customers located throughout the country was manufacturing and distributing from both the west coast and the Midwest. Covid caused their workforce to shrink, which was exacerbated by the transportation issues the pandemic brought with it. This resulted in increased costs and reduced profits. Management brought in our supply chain team to study their logistics and transportation operations, as they felt that their incumbent managers lacked the skills to develop and employ the strategy and tactics needed to compensate for the current situation. They generated long list of deliverables, including help in a planned RFP for truckload transportation.
