In-House Management

PROVIDING THE ULTIMATE FREIGHT SOLUTION - 4PL TO THE RESCUE Until recently, companies have been outsourcing segments of their supply chains to niche providers that specialise in activities like international transport or customs clearing. These companies may have had to use numerous third-party logistics providers (3PLs) depending on how large and... complex the supply chain was. In the Southern African logistics market, now that 3PLs are well established - and in many cases struggling with shrinking industry margins - fourth party logistics (4PLs) are "re-emerging" and have started to have a more prominent place in the corporate agenda of relevant organizations. As a matter of fact, the failure of some 3PLs to meet the specific logistics and supply chain requirements of their customers has pushed the shippers themselves to look for a "Superprovider" that can offer them value-added solutions to their ever growing needs. In-House Management was established to be just such a “Superprovider”. Using a 4PL service provider like In-House Management is different from the traditional 3PL. Technology plays a key part, but is only part of the answer. It is the one element of success of process, people and technology. We aim to bring a different perspective through knowledge, experience and technology to the shipper's existing freight function. We work with our clients to reengineer their supply chain into an improved or new process. We see the process not just the freight function. We look at what is required to make it succeed. We are the Business Process Outsourcing provider. This cutting edge logistics we are providing will bring value and a reengineered approach to your needs. We can operate as a neutral partner and will manage the logistics process regardless of what carriers, forwarders or warehouses are used by our clients In-House can, and will, even manage the 3PL providers that you prefer to use.Read More
