Why choose partners that offer integrated logistics?

Understand Logistics & Freight

Integrated logistics is, without a doubt, one of the most used terms among logistics professionals when describing the services offered by their company or highlighting their differentials in the market. And its concept does not differ much from the original definition of the word ‘integrated’, which means the connection and interactivity between all areas involved in a process.

Basically, integrated logistics occurs when a freight forwarder takes full responsibility for the transportation of a cargo, planning and executing a strategy that englobes all the steps of the operation and optimizing the processes from start to finish.

The logistics market is constantly evolving and the development of technology has greatly contributed to a better integration of transportation stages, allowing forwarders to manage their customers’ supply chain more strategically. In other words, if in the past forwarders were already responsible for handling the majority of the processes involved in a logistics operation, today they have the resources to do it all, from the cargo’s pick-up to storage, packaging, multimodal freight, customs clearance, and final delivery.

 

Benefits of integrated logistics

 

There are countless benefits in partnering up with a forwarder that offers integrated logistics as part of their services. In addition to optimization of processes, your integrated logistics partner will also be able to effectively monitor each stage of the transportation of your cargo, keeping you posted throughout the entire operation and interconnecting processes that are somehow related or have an impact on each other.

Here are the key benefits of counting on a freight forwarder that operates in an integrated manner as your business partner:

  • Full control over the processes related to your cargo’s freight
  • No need to outsource any service
  • Reduced costs throughout the transportation chain
  • Specialized assistance from a forwarder with local expertise in the area
  • Increased profitability and competitive advantage towards customers
  • Open channel of communication and follow-up
