OUTSOURCED CONTRACT LOGISTICS

The SCALA consultant team has vast experience of outsourcing logistics on behalf of clients and also, previous experience of working for some of the major third party logistics businesses (3PLs). We understand the issues involved, the benefits, and the pitfalls of contract logistics operations compared with “in house” operations. Most importantly, we understand how to ensure contract logistics arrangements are successful for all parties.

Our outsourced logistics consulting projects include:

• Strategic assessment of ‘in-house’ versus ‘contracted options’
• Evaluating current contracts
• Identifying appropriate 3PLs to include within the Invitation to Tender (ITT) process
• Full management of ITT processes
• Detailed evaluation and validation of proposals
• Shortlisting and selection process
• Contract, commercial, and SLA arrangements
• Implementation and monitoring management
