With Freight Optimization Services (FOS), LeanLogistics has pioneered a new mode of freight transportation - Fractional Dedicated Truckload. FOS is an engineered network of member shippers and carriers that facilitates the continuous movement of freight, reducing empty miles and cost. With FOS, member shippers benefit from guaranteed capacity, premium service levels, and the opportunity for cost savings. Member carriers benefit from committed volume, routes with fewer empty miles, and increased capacity utilization.
In many ways, dedicated service is an ideal solution to current capacity constraints because it provides shippers with guaranteed capacity while assuring carriers a predictable core business. However, dedicated fleets are economically viable for only a small percentage of a shipper’s transportation needs –Fractional Dedicated Truckload provides the benefits of a dedicated fleet while spreading the required commitment and costs across a community of shippers and carriers.
LeanLogistics serves as the “Channel Captain,” taking complete ownership to design, build, and operate the network. By modeling complementary networks, we can determine opportunities for round trips and the application of Fractional Dedicated Truckload. By benchmarking network- wide coverage, rates, and performance, we help you get the best possible service and costs from your carriers.
