Add to basketPaperback. The goal of this book is to help the reader's growth in the transportation industry andthe business environment between shippers/receivers and their transportation providersin general. While this book is dedicated to the support of your efforts, it is simply not apanacea for any bid request or customer contract instance.This book obviously targets those who provide transportation services domestically orinternationally, with a slant toward the North American market. Some shippers or receiversmay also find it as enlightening. Succeeding in any business involves understanding whatthe other party wants out of a deal and then constructing a proposal that solves the otherparty's desires while giving you and your company a fair profit. Hopefully, transportproviders can better listen to their customers and maybe the shippers and receivers canbetter understand a little more clearly the methods, needs and requirements of transportservice providers.Some sections deal with the various foibles and methods of interacting with customersand finally producing realistic responses. A detailed section explains commercial issuesof pricing and bidding, while another grasps the technical aspects of bidding work. Casualreaders might find some facts or comments revealing.While technical understanding is beneficial to solving your bid response concerns,much of the physical aspect of moving freight is common sense, plus a healthy doseof geometric formulas, calculus, and trigonometry. Finding a realistic solution cansometimes get confusing because too many details get in the way. Reduce all those detailsto their lowest terms. Make the goal into manageable and control the commercial andtechnical activities. In today's world, everyone has rules and of course, transportationis no exception. Amid local, state, provincial, federal and international, but commonsense makes transportation functions profitable while technical functions make for safeexecution. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.
