The 2025 29th Annual Third-Party Logistics Study shows the continuation of positive, strategic relationships between shippers and third-party logistics (3PL) providers as they work together to increase efficiency and improve performance. Expectations and best practices within the supply chain continue to evolve as shippers and 3PLs adapt to changing market conditions and customer demands. The supply chain continues to face several challenges, including delays due to geopolitical unrest, which could be affecting interactions between shippers and 3PLs. Even still, this years study shows that most shippers (89%) agree their relationships with 3PLs have been successful. As in past studies, 3PLs typically respond more favorably, with 94% agreeing their relationships have been successful. These relationships are delivering results. Among shippers, 82% report that 3PLs contribute to improved customer service. Fewer (68%) say 3PLs provide new and innovative ways to improve logistics effectiveness and reduce overall supply chain costs. The ongoing demands for reliable service, prioritization of supply chain resiliency and the need for technology-based solutions are likely contributing to shippers use of 3PLs. The percentage of shippers reporting they increased their use of outsourced logistics services rose to 87% a 25% increase compared to the previous year. Technology enables many of the supply chain innovations in use today. Capable IT services have always been a key factor in the value proposition of shipper/3PL relationships. The percentage of shippers indicating theyre satisfied with the IT capabilities of 3PLs jumped to 87% this year, from 49% in the prior study. Control tower visibility ranks as the top shipper must-have, with 68% noting it. The most frequently cited technologies that shippers request remain those that are execution- and transaction-based. These include transportation management planning (54%), transportation management scheduling (53%), and warehouse and distribution center management (53%). Shippers are also seeking advanced analytics and data mining tools (49%), cloud-based solutions (40%) and customer relationship management (40%).]]>

The 2020 24th Annual Third-Party Logistics Study shows that shippers and their third- party logistics providers continue to enhance their relationships and work together to accomplish supply chain goals and objectives. Both parties seem to focus on doing what it takes to achieve supply chain success and to meet their business objectives. As suggested throughout the content of this report, the availability of data and the utilization of appropriate technologies are responsible for much of the improvement that is taking place. The study shows that the vast majority of shippers93%report that the relationships they have with their 3PLs generally have been successful. A higher number99%of 3PLs agree that their customer relationships generally have been successful. Among respondents of the 2020 study, 83% of shippers and 98% of 3PL providers agree that the use of 3PLs has contributed to improving services to the ultimate customers. Additionally, 66% of 3PL users and 93% of 3PL providers agree that 3PLs provide new and innovative ways to improve logistics effectiveness. Shippers are increasingly aware that if they do not have the technological capabilities to accomplish their goals, they should partner with those that do. As the amount of available data increases, shippers and their logistics partners will need to be able to take the available information and make it relevant. Many 3PLs are already making significant investments in technology that allow them to analyze shippers operations. The majority of shippers94%agree that IT capabilities are a necessary element of 3PL expertise, and 56% of shippers agree they are satisfied with 3PL IT capabilities. Again this year, there has been a continuation of the most frequently outsourced activities, which tend to be those that are more transactional, operational and repetitive. The most prevalent activities shippers outsource are domestic transportation (73%), warehousing (73%), international transportation (65%), customs brokerage (54%), and freight forwarding (52%).]]>

Volatility within the supply chain continued throughout the past year, and shippers and 3PLs must now consider and plan for disruptions on a much more global scale, which can affect entire supply chains. Ongoing challenges, strategic misalignments or unexpected challenges could be straining 3PL-shipper relationships. This year, 83% of shipper respondents agreed that their relation- ships are successful. Traditionally, this has hovered around 90% or above. 3PLs typically respond more favorably, with 99% of 3PL respondents agreeing their relationships are successful. Even still, a majority of shippers71%report that using 3PLs has contributed to improving customer service, similar to the 73% reported in last years study. Additionally, 71% of shippers and 92% of 3PLs agree that 3PLs provide new and innovative ways to improve logistics effectiveness. Domestic transportation remains the most frequently outsourced activity (at 69% this year, an increase from 67% in the previous study). However, some outsourced services saw significant shifts. There was a year-over-year increase in freight forwarding, up to 60% from 44%, and international transportation also increased to 52% from 44%. Warehousing saw a decrease, dropping to 43% from 63%. Shippers continue to have high expectations of 3PLs IT solutions. The percentages of shippers indicating specific technologies as must haves increased for 14 of the 19 IT capabilities listed in the study. Executive Summary 5 2023 Third-Party Logistics Study The most frequently cited technologies remain those that are execution- and transaction-based, including transportation management-planning (62%), transportation management-scheduling (57%) and warehouse/distribution center management (48%).]]>

The past year has been full of volatility for shippers and their logistics providers, but the 2022 26th Annual Third-Party Logistics Study shows that shippers and their third-party logistics providers continue to experience benefits from their relationships. Both groups have worked together to navigate fluctuating demand, capacity problems and uncer- tainties in the market. Ultimately, some of the data from this years study may be interpreted to reflect a modest decline in some performance ratings provided by shippers. As in the past, shippers, also known throughout the study as users of 3PL services, continue to have high expectations of what they need from logistics and supply chain service providers. 3PLs are continuing to increase their technolog- ical and digital capabilities, improving service, optimizing networks and driving efficiency. The majority of shippers 89%reported that their relationships with their 3PLs generally have been successful. A higher number98%of 3PLs agreed that their customer relationships generally have been successful. Among 2022 study respondents, 73% of shippers and 95% of 3PL providers agree that the use of 3PLs has contributed to improving service to the shippers customers. Additional- ly, 73% of 3PL users (the shippers) and 90% of 3PL providers agree that 3PLs provide new and innovative ways to improve logistics effectiveness. Whats more, 64% of 3PL users and Executive Summary 5 2022 Third-Party Logistics Study 86% of 3PL providers agree that the use of 3PLs has reduced overall logistics costs. The most frequently outsourced activities remain those that are more transactional, operational and repetitive. The most prevalent activities shippers outsource are domestic transpor- tation (67%), warehousing (63%), customs brokerage (46%), international transportation (44%) and freight forwarding (49%). Researchers found that the IT Gap remains static, and 94% of shippers agree that IT capabilities are a necessary element of 3PL expertise. More than half58%of shippers indicate they are satisfied with their 3PLs IT capabilities.

The most frequently-cited technologies this year were those that are more execution- and transaction-based, including control tower visibility (60%), transportation manage- ment-scheduling (51%), transportation management-plan- ning (51%), cloud-based solutions (49%) and transportation sourcing (40%). <img style="border:1px solid #C3E6D8;float:right;" alt="" src="https://cdn.slidesharecdn.com/ss_thumbnails/3pl2022study-241203122651-2be1cce6-thumbnail.jpg?width=120&amp;height=120&amp;fit=bounds" /><br> The past year has been full of volatility for shippers and their logistics providers, but the 2022 26th Annual Third-Party Logistics Study shows that shippers and their third-party logistics providers continue to experience benefits from their relationships. Both groups have worked together to navigate fluctuating demand, capacity problems and uncer- tainties in the market. Ultimately, some of the data from this years study may be interpreted to reflect a modest decline in some performance ratings provided by shippers. As in the past, shippers, also known throughout the study as users of 3PL services, continue to have high expectations of what they need from logistics and supply chain service providers. 3PLs are continuing to increase their technolog- ical and digital capabilities, improving service, optimizing networks and driving efficiency. The majority of shippers 89%reported that their relationships with their 3PLs generally have been successful. A higher number98%of 3PLs agreed that their customer relationships generally have been successful. Among 2022 study respondents, 73% of shippers and 95% of 3PL providers agree that the use of 3PLs has contributed to improving service to the shippers customers. Additional- ly, 73% of 3PL users (the shippers) and 90% of 3PL providers agree that 3PLs provide new and innovative ways to improve logistics effectiveness. Whats more, 64% of 3PL users and Executive Summary 5 2022 Third-Party Logistics Study 86% of 3PL providers agree that the use of 3PLs has reduced overall logistics costs. The most frequently outsourced activities remain those that are more transactional, operational and repetitive. The most prevalent activities shippers outsource are domestic transpor- tation (67%), warehousing (63%), customs brokerage (46%), international transportation (44%) and freight forwarding (49%). Researchers found that the IT Gap remains static, and 94% of shippers agree that IT capabilities are a necessary element of 3PL expertise.

The 2019 23rd Annual Third-Party Logistics Study shows that shippers and their 3PL providers are increasingly moving toward meaningful partnerships and working together to accomplish their supply chain goals. Both parties appear to have a much greater awareness of what theyre trying to accomplish as well as the ways in which the availability of data and the use of technology can help them progress. The study shows that the majority of shippers91%report that the relationships they have with their 3PLs generally have been successful. A higher number98%of 3PLs agree that their customer relationships generally have been successful. Among respondents of the 2019 study, 89% of shippers and 98% of 3PL providers agree that the use of 3PLs has contributed to improving services to the ultimate customers. Additionally, 73% of 3PL users and 91% of 3PL providers agree that 3PLs provide new and innovative ways to improve logistics effectiveness. Shippers are increasingly aware that if they do not have the technological capabilities to accomplish their goals, they should partner with those that do. As the amount of available data increases, shippers and their logistics partners will need to be able to take the information and make it relevant as many 3PLs are already making significant investments in technology that allows them to analyze shippers operations. The majority of shippers93%agree that IT capabilities are a necessary element of 3PL expertise, and 55% of shippers agree they are satisfied with 3PL IT capabilities. Again this year, there has been a continuation of the most frequently outsourced activities, which tend to be those that are more transactional, operational and repetitive. The most prevalent outsourced activities are domestic transportation (81%), international transportation (71%), warehousing (69%), freight forwarding (50%) and customs brokerage (40%).]]>

The 2021 25th Annual Third-Party Logistics Study shows that shippers and their third- party logistics providers continue to experience benefits from their relationships. During the past year, supply chains were tested domestically and abroad, and shippers and 3PLs have collaborated to meet demand and minimize the effect of drastic swings in capacity. Shippers, also known throughout the study as users of 3PL services, continue to have high expectations of what they need from logistics and supply chain service providers, and providers are responding with increased technological and digital capabilities, improved service levels and greater efficiency. At the same time, supply chains are being impacted regularly by changes and advances in several critical areas, including alignment, relationships and shared values, core competencies, and matching supply and demand. The majority of shippers91%reported that the relationships they have with their 3PLs generally have been successful. A higher number99%of 3PLs agreed that their customer relationships generally have been successful. Among 2021 study respondents, 88% of shippers and 99% of 3PL providers agree that the use of 3PLs has contributed to improving service to the ultimate customers. Additionally, 76% of 3PL users and 92% of 3PL providers agree that 3PLs provide new and innovative ways to improve logistics effectiveness.

In the 2014 18th Annual Third Party Logistics Study, survey results showed the continuing, positive overall nature of shipper-3PL relationships. Both parties view them as being successful, and shippers are seeing positive results again this year: an average logistics cost reduction of 11%, average inventory cost reduction of 6%, and an average fixed logistics cost reduction of 23%. Shippers agree that 3PLs provide new and innovative ways to improve logistics effectiveness, and that they are sufficiently agile and flexible to accommodate future business needs and challenges. Despite ongoing churn in shipper-3PL relationships, in general shippers are increasing their use of outsourced logistics services, and shippers and 3PLs are now about equally satisfied (70% and 69%, respectively) with the openness, transparency and good communication in their relationships.]]>

Both parties view them as being successful, and shippers are seeing positive results again this year: an average logistics cost reduction of 11%, average inventory cost reduction of 6%, and an average fixed logistics cost reduction of 23%. Shippers agree that 3PLs provide new and innovative ways to improve logistics effectiveness, and that they are sufficiently agile and flexible to accommodate future business needs and challenges.
