The changes include stricter customer requirements, amended laws and regulations, initiatives being taken by industry organizations and pressure from shippers and large logistics service providers. It is rarely easy to implement the necessary organizational changes, but forwarders can safeguard or strengthen their position by responding quickly to new opportunities and future changes. It is important to make a choice now and abandon the idea of “holding on to what you’ve got.”

It is an ecosystem problem, as issues can originate beyond the scope of one’s own internal network of factories, warehouses, and distribution centers.
