SALES & OPERATIONS PLANNING Balancing Supply & Demand in Manufacturing

September 1, 2022

sales-and-operations-planning-balancing
A tale as old as industrialization itself. The former driven by producers, the latter by consumers. Every business is subject to the supply and demand paradigm, but manufacturing organizations in particular, since they determine the supply side of the equation. When we talk about “demand,” we are talking about the quantity of a specific good or service that consumers are willing and able to purchase during a given period of time. When we talk about “supply,” we are talking about the quantity of that specific good or service that is available to consumers.

What is LTL Freight.

whitePaper | November 24, 2022

Most often, trying to move your freight as a parcel or truckload shipment would be costly because it’s not the ideal size for those providers. This is where LTL shipping comes in! LTL is an industry acronym that stands for “less-than-truckload”. LTL refers to those shipments that are, quite literally, less than a truckload. They do not need all the space provided in a standard truck trailer because of their size and/or weight. In this case, you’ll find using an LTL carrier is more cost-effective than using a truckload carrier for your freight.
