Freight Management Services

LTL Programs, Carrier Evaluations, Inbound Logistics, Audit

Deregulation of the United States surface transportation industry greatly expanded the methods and manner in which cargo is transported. Most purchasing and traffic departments did not have the time, or in some cases, the expertise to explore all the new options available to them as the costs of inbound raw material and its transportation continued to rise. Most were overworked and undermanned in planning and execution of outbound transportation.

Logistics staffing continually decreases as the small, medium and even the largest corporations are forced to reduce overhead and stay afloat. As the recession continues, a major burden is placed on small business owners and top-level executives alike. That is to provide products to their customers at a reasonable price, utilizing less labor, in an ever changing marketplace with increasing transportation options.

Material Management International offers the domestic and international shipping community, regardless of company size, a sophisticated freight management service. The flexibility of our technology gives you an edge against the competition. As your customers’ needs and demands change, MMI can accommodate your needs in terms of reports, Web-based access to information and fast communication.
