Is Your Fleet Ownership Model Still Relevant?
CHANGES HAPPEN FAST!
Things move and change quickly in the supply chain game and if your business is slow to react, excessive costs and loss of competitive advantage are the typical consequences.
WHAT’S THE BEST FLEET MIX NOW?
If you’ve outsourced your transportation, how do you know if it’s time to consider bringing it in-house, or vice versa?
Perhaps a mix of owned and outsourced assets would be an appropriate solution for your company—but what should be the proportion of each?
ANALYSIS
Regular analysis of your transport task and the assets necessary to execute it is an essential element in successful fleet management—but many organisations don’t have the resources or skilled specialists to carry it out.
Without such analysis though, you and your logistics team might forever be wondering if there’s more that could be done to improve transportation performance.
Establishing and Maintaining your Fleet at the Right Scale can Make or Break your Supply Chain
You can own your fleet, outsource it, or combine the two options for a hybrid solution.
But which way is the right way for your enterprise or organisation?
That’s the burning question!

Rules of Thumb for Fleet Ownership Decision
At the most basic level, in-house fleet ownership is most suited to businesses in which the transport task is routine, with consistent demand, and drives high utilisation of transportation assets.
On the other hand a highly variable demand in terms of volume and drop location, may sway the decision toward using an outsourced fleet.
Of course, the factors driving a fleet ownership decision are seldom so straightforward, and following a rule of thumb leaves plenty of scope for error.
So when your business needs a fleet ownership review, why not let Logistics Bureau do the legwork for you?
Our skilled logisticians have deep knowledge of the transportation industry, as well as the tools and technology to perform the complex analysis required for an informed fleet ownership decision.
