Order smaller sizes batches
70% of contracted transportation liens to be used for procurement receive no volume. 70%! How is this possible? Procurement teams typically rely upon the hope their forecasts will be at least 95% accurate. They never are. These models calls for ordering in large quantities that can never be consistently maintained because they tie up the transportation models supplying them. This abysmal statistic explains why it is important to avoid shipping in such large quantities. It is simpler and easier, and more cost-effective to ship in smaller sizes.
