Talking Transports

SMC³ on Making Better LTL Rate Decisions


Listen Later

The right pricing strategy can make or break margins on less-than-truckload shipments, especially amid weak demand. In this episode of Bloomberg Intelligence’s Talking Transports podcast, SMC³ President and CEO Andrew Slusher joins BI’s senior transportation and logistics analyst Lee Klaskow to explain how the company’s technology-driven tools help shippers, carriers and brokers make informed decisions on rates, costs, transit times and emissions. They discuss trends in the LTL industry — from dynamic pricing and sustainability to market uncertainty, consolidation and FedEx Freight’s planned spinoff. Slusher also shares insights on leadership, innovation, AI’s potential impact on transportation and his shift to trucking from aviation.
