HII CONSULTING?

At the request of many large corporations, HII has been assisting with complex transportation needs through consultation. So many companies today utilize multiple transportation venders for their demanding delivery needs that they end up having their own elaborate internal transportation department just to manage the venders. The main problem this causes is that their internal costs go through the roof and there is no direct monetary return on this kind of cash outlay. These companies end up having a group of individuals managing multiple transportation companies generally because there is not enough technology in place by either the vender or their own company to accommodate all their needs. This exact scenario is what has prompted HII to forge the way in transportation technology.

Helpful questions to ask when considering transportation venders:

1) Do you offer detailed invoicing?
2) Do you offer bar code scanning technology?
3) Do you have two-way communication with all your drivers?
4) Do you offer 24 hour dispatch?
5) Does your company offer GPS tracking/monitoring of couriers to get your most accurate ETA times and quickest hot shot pick ups?
6) Will I be assigned my own customer service representative?

These are just a few of the types of questions HII can assist your organization with in a one-on-one consulting session, should you feel your current transportation department could use a face lift. HII has years of experience in assisting organizations to streamline their delivery departments and cut costs in the area of transportation. Please contact HII’s Corporate Headquarters toll-free at 888-662-7222 or it's Kansas City office at 888-859-9955 today to set up a consultation session.
