Ege Avenue Accociates

provide clients with pragmatic transportation strategies grounded with real world experience that are implementable, not just theoretical, utilizing my 39 years as a transportation professional with shippers, motor carriers, nvocc, public warehouse, and a domestic freight forwarder. part of my mission is to educate shipper clients that there is more to transportation than the rates you negotiate, regardless of the mode type. points that i will be stressing: total delivered cost is what shippers should be looking at, not just rates. the proper role of bids/rfp’s. every lane should not be bid yearly. every shipper has a segment of lanes that lends itself to bidding, not the entire network. mode conversion to intermodal, rail box car, pool distribution, and trans loading. managing inbound transportation (commodities, packaging, ingredients, mro, etc.). if you don’t manage an inbound lane, at the very least ensure the rate the supplier is paying is reasonable. transportation capacity plann
