Logistics Service that Makes a Difference in Your Bottom Line
What Freight Service Offerings Do You Provide?
The short answer is: AM Transport is the leading provider of outsourced logistics services for manufacturers and distributors. The team at AMT evaluates your logistics needs and makes recommendations based on in-depth analysis. We create a customized plan with access to a cloud-based TMS and help you implement it, all the while delivering robust reporting and transparent visibility to your team, so you receive the best freight service in the midwest.
BUT FIRST, WHAT DO WE REALLY DO?
We help manufacturers and distributors deliver products to customers on-time. And we do this by offering a full-suite of transportation services–from managed freight (Logistics as a Service) and logistics consulting to expedited deliveries, load optimization, and critical freight service.
But the truth is, most 3PLs will tell you some version of this same story. How do you choose the right 3PL for your needs?
You figure out what you need. Here at AM Transport, we’re different–in the best way. We’re small 3PL committed to our team, our community, and the customers and carriers we are fortunate to work with. We’re proud of our size. Our team members really get to know our customers and carriers. Building relationships is at the heart of how we’re different.
And because we’re small and do everything in-house, we’re agile, able to make decisions quickly and with autonomy. We’re not following a flow-chart where problems or solutions have to make their way through a convoluted system to the top.
3 Superior Freight Service Offerings
Access to the Best Carriers
The logistics team at AM Transport Service has created long-term relationships with the carriers you want to work with. Let me tell you about these carriers.
We know these carriers. We know the men and women who own the companies, all the folks in the shop, and the committed and experienced drivers. That means we’re all working together for mutual success.
And you know what else? These carriers have low-driver turnover and long business histories because they’re good.
Furthermore, they have low customer turnover. Their service is exceptional in an industry where that’s not always the case.
Exceptional Customer Service
For over 33 years, we’ve worked with the best logistics professionals in the transportation business. We’ve studied, invested in, and implemented the best practices of the most advanced supply chains in the world.
We provide a variety of offerings for shippers with one goal in mind–the level of support our manufacturers and distributors need. To that end, our team members are cross-trained with the ability to make quick decisions. Our data scientists and tech team are in-house too. That means when you have a problem, we’re not filling out a service ticket and sending it across some large campus. We’re on it within minutes because that’s how we work.
You can outsource your entire logistics operation to our experienced team, or we’re available for fractional engagements. Either way, our 30 years experience and first-hand knowledge of diverse supply chain environments will benefit your operation.
Accountability
Our service is relationship-based. We get to know our customers and we create valuable friendships. We’ll outline the objectives most important to your company whether its cost, service, or communication (or a combination). We share this criteria with your transportation providers because when they succeed with your company, you succeed. We create reporting standards, dashboards, and reports because transparency is imperative to strong relationships where each player knows where they stand according to agreed-upon criteria. Finally, we hold quarterly conferences to track and report status, and to innovate and improve where needed.
