For the seventh consecutive year, the consultancy Armstrong & Associates (A&A) is staging its 3PL Value Creation North America Summit in Chicago this week.
As our readers know, A&A was established in 1980 to meet the needs of a newly deregulated domestic transportation market.
Since then, through its leading Third-Party Logistics (3PL) market research and history of helping companies outsource logistics functions, A&A has become an internationally recognized key resource for 3PL market information and transactional intelligence.
A&A’s mission is to have leading proprietary logistics management and market research not available anywhere else.
As proof of their continued work in supporting its mission, A&A’s 3PL market research is frequently cited in our “Top 3PL” and “Top Forwarders” features.
In addition, A&A’s email newsletter currently has over 85,000 subscribers globally.
Finally, it is worth noting that A&A’s latest Top Third-Party Logistics Provider lists are now available. Leveraging its “Who’s Who in Logistics” online 3PL guide, encompassing over 635 3PL profiles, A&A’s Top 3PL lists include:
· Top 50 Global 3PLs
· Top 50 U.S. 3PLs
· Top 25 Global Freight Forwarders
· Top 100 Domestic Transportation Managers/Freight Brokers
· Top Global 3PLs by Industry
Stay tuned for a post-summit wrap-up as we speak with some of the more prominent presenters about the current and future state of the industry.
