Doug Keeley, Product Marketing Manager, Ivalua. If you have ever read an article about Procurement best practices, you know that a very small minority of teams are categorized as leaders and an equally small minority are considered laggards. That leaves the vast majority of companies and teams in the middle – and each one of them is working hard every day to be as good as they can given their current priorities, challenges and resources.

Sadly, it seems some shippers may have forgotten an important truth about effective carrier relations. ATRI reports detention times have crept up in 2019 following the historic and painful capacity crunch of 2018 during which, shippers pursued “Shipper of Choice” status with their carriers by focusing on ways to make carriers’ lives easier (like reducing detention/dwell time).

Alex Saric, CMO, Ivalua. In my previous posts, I looked at how to successfully launch a digital transformation and progress to best-in-class Procurement. Achieving best-in-class is a worthy goal, but should be viewed as an interim one rather than the ultimate objective, at least as typically measured.
