Transportation - In today's world of driver shortages, high fuel charges and inefficient delivery performance, it is clear that transportation costs are becoming harder and harder to control, let alone reduce.
Companies spend between 5-10% of their revenue on transportation, making this an area of focus for investing in products and services that result in better visibility, management and control of their transportation spending.
Since 1993, PLC has been helping our customers achieve higher levels of performance and cost reduction for both their inbound and outbound operations. Specifically, our transportation services are designed to lower cost, eliminate non–value activities, improve customer service and utilize resources more effectively, resulting in lower transportation costs.

Labor - Labor costs account for 50–65% of the total distribution cost and, as such, is a critically important area in which to focus performance improvement initiatives and cost reduction.
It is widely understood that to successfully achieve higher levels of performance through labor productivity improvement, organizations must be willing to adopt a performance culture. A performance culture is one that places a priority on objective measurement, individual and team achievement, performance reporting and monitoring, ongoing training, communication and development of a continuous improvement environment.
