LSPs create value for shippers (manufacturers, wholesalers & distributors, and retailers) as a strategic outsource provider, alleviating various capacity constraints and/or by providing technology, skills, and process capabilities. In ever-changing markets, services need to evolve and demand for new service offerings occurs. For example, during times when carrier capacity is low, dedicated contract carriage becomes more attractive. Warehouse-based LSPs are also tapped for their expertise by retailers expanding or adding e-commerce fulfillment into their network. In these uncertain and dynamic environments, LSPs have to be agile and adaptable to shipper needs through system and process optimization.
