TA Services, a third-party logistics provider in Mansfield, Texas, recently completed a six-month project for a national building materials distributor, delivering over 1,200 shipments with a remarkable 98% on-time performance. This achievement is particularly significant given the 300% increase in shipment volume from the project's start to its peak. Previously, the distributor struggled with a vendor pick-up model that lacked a defined accessorial policy and suffered from inconsistent communication and coverage instability. To address these issues, TA Services completely restructured the logistics operation, implementing a robust accessorial policy and a relationship-driven carrier network. Loretta Sercy, Director of Business Development at TA Services, emphasized that the operation was not merely a plug-and-play solution; it was fundamentally rebuilt to handle increased volume without sacrificing service quality. The project also highlighted a broader trend in the building materials sector, where shippers are increasingly prioritizing reliability and communication as market conditions become more volatile. TA Services continues to innovate in logistics, offering tailored solutions that meet the unique demands of the construction industry.
