Transportation Advantage™
Transportation Advantage™: A Smarter Transportation Strategy for Ecommerce
Transportation isn’t a carrier decision. It’s a business strategy. Your customers don’t care which carrier delivers their package. They care that it arrives quickly, reliably, and at a reasonable cost. eWorld Fulfillment’s Transportation Advantage™ combines intelligent carrier selection, regional inventory positioning, and transportation analytics into one continuously optimized shipping strategy, helping reduce transportation expense while improving customer experience.
Shipment-level analysis enables smarter delivery planning by selecting the best transportation option for every package.
Transportation Advantage™
What is Transportation Advantage™?
Transportation Advantage™ is eWorld Fulfillment’s transportation optimization strategy designed to evaluate shipments and identify the best transportation solution based on the specific characteristics of the order and fulfillment network. The program is not built around forcing every shipment through one carrier.
More Than Carrier Selection
Traditional 3PLs ask, ‘What carrier would you like to use?’ eWorld Fulfillment asks, ‘What’s the best transportation strategy for your business?’ Rather than locking customers into a single carrier, eWorld Fulfillment continuously evaluates destination, weight, dimensions, service requirements, regional carrier coverage, inventory location, performance, and transportation cost to determine the optimal solution.
A Transportation Strategy Built Around Your Business
What works as a transportation strategy for your business may not work for others. Each business has specific evaluation factors to consider when choosing a transportation carrier for shipping. Some carriers may take longer to deliver to specific locations, while others may not be able to deliver packages of certain weights or dimensions. Cost and availability are also factors to consider. If you expect a certain level of performance with your shipment or have specific delivery requirements, choose a transportation optimization strategy that meets all those needs.
