This marks the 30th year that the LM editorial team has worked with Karl B. Manrodt, Ph.D., of Georgia College on this survey that has become recognized across the industry as the ultimate report card on overall logistics operations performance. Through the survey, our research team reveals the percentage of freight dollars being spent by mode, shares updated performance metrics by mode, and identifies any major shifts in transportation spending and technology adoption. Manrodt is joined once again by Christopher Boone, Ph.D., of Mississippi State University to put context around the findings starting on page 20. Over the past few years, our team has re-directed some of the questioning to place more focus on the key factors driving digital transformation in our logistics operations, including the need for more software and technology to improve visibility and overall performance. |
