Future Freight Flows: Scenario Planning Toolkit
The Scenario Planning Toolkit is designed to help transportation planners in any organization design, plan, and run a Scenario Planning Workshop. There are two types of material contained here: Guidebooks and Workshop Collateral.
Freight contract performance & portfolio strategies
In the U.S. truckload (TL) industry, shippers and motor carriers face major challenges as a result of uncertainties in the amount and timing of demand for capacity, availability of trucks at the time and locations needed, and external market conditions.
Forecasting Long Haul Truckload Spot Market Rates
The project aims at predicting long haul truckload spot market rates in continental USA for the near future. Accurate forecasting of transportation costs is a key step in logistical planning. It helps buyers and sellers
of transportation services make better decisions at all stages of a supply chain.
Modeling Effects of Natural Disasters on The US Truckload Market
We analyze shipment data for assessing the impact of natural disasters on freight movement. Our focus is on North-Atlantic hurricanes that make landfall in the contiguous USA. Quantifying the impact of natural disasters on the truckload industry can help shippers know what costs to expect, what routes to avoid, how to procure and position relief goods.
