There are numerous levers to reduce

There are numerous levers to reduce cost per mile (CPM) in logistics. A recent article on Trucking Info offers up four specific ways to reduce cost per mile in logistics. These are: 1. Reduce fuel consumption 2. Reduce out-of-route miles 3. Develop a comprehensive safety program 4. Reduce on-the-road maintenance Most of these are what we might term “motherhood and apple pie” when it comes to general transportation savings strategies. But the explanations in the articles are both succinct and sufficiently detailed to make the article a useful bookmark on the topic. For example, the authors suggest that that out-of-route miles “burn unnecessary fuel, cause unnecessary wear and tear on vehicles, diminish driver productivity, and erode customer service … [to tackle out-of-route miles] create a report that compares actual miles driven with published miles for each trip. Establish a variance tolerance (a percent rather than number of miles). Flag drivers who exceed the threshold and include this performance metric on the driver scorecard. Since this behavior is coachable, it is important to learn the cause of each flagged incident, take corrective measures and track progress.” Beyond implementing CPM reduction strategies within a logistics sourcing team -- as well as the recommendations above -- tracking cost per mile is a useful metric for understanding overall price trending in the market. In the report, Summer 2013 – Logistics Pricing Review and Outlook, Procurian and Spend Matters offer a view into quarterly CPM price trending going back to the spring of 2012. The findings might surprise some, with CPM data trending upwards thus far in 2013. For the full analysis of CPM price trending, we encourage our readers to download the report here (free, registration required). In the analysis, we also explore regional city pairs price trending data for the past four quarters and intermodal adoption data trending. - See more at: http://spendmatters.com/2013/09/12/logistics-pricing-analysis-cost-per-mile-cpm-cost-reduction-strategies-price-trending/#sthash.4PNKQNv3.dpuf
