SUPPLY CHAIN CHALLENGES Damages and Delays Can Have Major Ramifications Late or damaged deliveries can have significant consequences for utility companies, contractors, and manufacturers that use cable or wire in their production.

Often, the manufacturer’s customers have challenging appointment windows, and drop-offs can require special handling. Prior carriers to Avenger had poor on-time performance, and frequent claims occurred. Accessorials from carriers were common too, making it hard for the manufacturer to control transportation costs.

Challenging Loads Require Specialized Service Cable and wire loads are usually large, heavy and highrisk. Safely transporting these cargoes requires expert securement and close coordination with shippers and receivers. Carrier vetting is crucial. Shippers need open deck haulers with experience and good safety ratings; otherwise, they open themselves to risk. Because they are highly trained, flatbed drivers are traditionally in high demand, and finding capacity is a continuous challenge.

Manual Processes Persist and Undermine Control Manual processes used by carriers for tendering loads, confirming milestones like pickup and delivery, and tracking lead to costly inefficiency. The manufacturer has a dynamic supply chain and buyers with demanding timelines and special handling needs. They include just-intime production lines that rely on wire, construction sites with waiting crews, and utility companies pressed to repair downed lines after storms. In the rush and inefficiency of emails and phone calls, details are easily overlooked, causing confusion, delays and damages.

Visibility Gaps Increased Vulnerability to Fraud At the top of loads targeted by thieves today is copper wire—a staple of the manufacturer’s shipments. The manufacturer, like just about every shipper today, is increasingly concerned about fraud prevention. Ensuring all carriers have GPS tracking, providing real-time visibility into loads’ location, is essential but not universal among flatbed carriers. Staying on the leading edge of fraud prevention is a constant challenge, but a necessary commitment, especially for manufacturers with demanding shipping requirements and high-value cargoes.

WHY AVENGER LOGISTICS A wire and cable manufacturer of the size and importance as Avenger’s customer needs go-to partners who can respond quickly to needs and problem-solve complex challenges.

Avenger has the resources of a varied and vetted carrier pool and leading-edge technology to respond decisively to anything from an emergency response or territory expansion to a potential disruption or supply chain opportunity.

More than the capability to perform, Avenger brings expertise of a transportation partner who commits to learn the customer’s operations, locations and people and brings a can-do attitude that inspires confidence and supports success.

Being the one partner the manufacturer knows they can count on has grown Avenger’s business from serving one location to 23, performing 145 loads a month and having $2M in freight under management in 10 years.
