MAY 12: What Does Carrier Capacity Look Like Now and Over The Next 3 to 6 Months?
In just over a month, the COVID-19 pandemic has wiped out all the job gains since the Great Recession and brought the country’s decade-long record economic growth streak to an abrupt halt. As a result of this economic downturn, there is very little truck movement across the country, and rates have been driven to lows not seen in a decade. As the economy looks to begin reopening in the coming weeks, it is yet to be determined how carrier capacity will ultimately respond. This webinar focuses on the various factors that are likely to impact carrier capacity over the next several months including the aging driver population, shortage of new drivers, drivers who are at least temporarily taking themselves out of the driver pool through COVID-19, as well as industry changes (both surging and waning industries), and other factors.

DECEMBER 3: Gaining Visibility and Control over the Digital Supply Chain
While a hot topic today, Digital Transformation of the Supply Chain has been happening for decades.

The end result are the people in that equation being freed to focus on exceptions and more importantly, do what they do best: plan and strategize for better service and outcomes. VIEW RECORDING
