What are good questions to ask a logistics company?
When evaluating a logistics provider, it’s crucial to pose queries that probe into their capabilities, experience, and customer service ethos. Some pertinent questions include:
- What transportation modes do you specialize in?
- How do you handle unforeseen delays or disruptions?
- What tracking and visibility technology do you employ
- How do you ensure shipment security?
- What sets your company apart from competitors?
- What distinguishes logistics from the supply chain?
While closely intertwined, logistics and supply chain management pertain to different facets of the same process—the movement of goods from production to consumption. Logistics primarily deals with the physical movement and storage of goods, encompassing distribution, warehousing, and transportation. Supply chain management, however, encompasses a broader spectrum of tasks, including production, demand forecasting, inventory management, and procurement. In essence, logistics serves as the implementation arm of the broader supply chain strategy.
