Get the Flash Player to see this player.

Discovering and exploring 3PL industry trends, issues and opportunities is the overall objective of the 2009 Fourteenth Annual Third-Party Logistics Study. Previous editions have focused on identifying and tracking key trends of the 3PL industry largely from the perspective of the 3PL customer (shippers) and others who chose not to use 3PLs. This year, for the first time, the scope was expanded to include the views of 3PL providers.

Each year, the study results as well as greater industry developments suggest trends that warrant closer examination. Included in the 2009 study are special topic reports on economic volatility, the IT capability gap and supply chain orchestration.
