Which Side of the 3PL Love-Hate Fence Are You On?
Views on third party logistics providers are often polarised you either love them or hate them. Talk to a cross section of a third party logistics provider’s clients and the perceptions will vary considerably. By nature we only recall the last worst experience, we tend to accept as a given good service and only exceptional service may warrant comment. The views often change depending on what level of management the question is posed to. More junior managers focus on the day to day tactical and operational issues more senior managers on the strategic and general business opportunities.
