In this Talking Transports podcast, Ben McLean, Ruan Transportation Management Systems’ CEO, joins Lee Klaskow, Bloomberg Intelligence’s senior transportation and logistics analyst, to talk about the state of the dedicated trucking market and what the future has in store. Dedicated trucking services offer shippers capacity free of the risks and expenses of owning and managing a fleet, letting them focus on their core businesses. For carriers this provides less earnings volatility than is associated with the over-the-road truckload market. McLean also discussed the challenges for the industry to lower emissions, given prevailing technologies, and tapping the FMCSA’s Safe Driver Apprenticeship Pilot to find safe, qualified drivers.
