How does Managed Logistics work?
J.B. Hunt Managed Logistics handles the entire supply chain – or part of a supply chain – for customers from the modeling stage all the way through execution. First, we meet with the customer to learn about their freight needs and business goals. From there, we have it covered!
We design scalable supply chain solutions tailored to fit each customer’s unique needs and take over the day-to-day operations. Our mode-neutral model and access to capacity gives us the flexibility to choose the mode that most benefits your business.
Some of the daily supply chain management capabilities we offer include:
- Engineering consultation and design
- Routing guide facilitation
- Load planning
- Mode and route optimization
- Spot pricing and bid management
- Tracking and exception management
- Reporting and analytics
- Freight payment, audit and accrual
- Consolidation and deconsolidation
Why choose Managed Logistics?
Managing a supply chain in-house requires companies to expend a significant amount of capital investment and manpower, from load planning and freight technology to carrier procurement and bid management. By outsourcing these tasks to J.B. Hunt, our Managed Logistics team lets you reclaim some of that organizational capital and reinvest those resources back into your core business. In addition, we have processes in place to help measure ROI and create cost-saving opportunities by optimizing your network.
By choosing in-house supply chain management, companies also assume all the risk associated with shipping freight like cargo security, carrier management and equipment maintenance. And with all that risk comes higher insurance costs. You can forget the stress that comes with fleet management and mitigate some of that risk by choosing to outsource with J.B. Hunt.
At J.B. Hunt, safety isn’t just something we talk about – it’s part of our culture. Between our thorough carrier vetting process, investments in safety and tracking technologies and award-winning cargo security practices you can rest easy knowing your supply chain is in good hands.
