Chemical Shipper Mitigates High "Cost to Serve Issues" With ChemLogix Logistics Management Outsource Solution
Lacking centralized control and management of logistic functions at its five US production facilities, Pilot Chemical Company found it could not adequately account for cost-to-serve elements of individual transactions, resulting in inefficient carrier management, freight scheduling and cost accruals.

By implementing ChemLogix’ TMS solution, the global chemical company gained full visibility into freight spend through online access to data and generation of custom reports and optimized freight operations in several key areas including carrier management, route guide design, tender management, and on-time delivery compliance.
