The transportation and distribution network is witnessing unprecedented growth right now, but this is also fueling new forms of operational complexity. Costs can spiral out of control, unless preemptively struck now. According to a report submitted by business consulting giant Bain, leading companies are on top for a reason. Their distribution and transportation costs are less than a mere six percent of total revenue, where the typical companies clock between a six and an eight percent. While designing the network, one needs to have a clear understanding of the overall costs. An overall bird’s eye view needs to be assessed. The corporate strategy needs to focus on the long- run. Any changes to the network needs to be tracked closely, while also ensuring that there is detailed monitoring.
