   “I’m not a trucking guy. I’m a supply chain specialist,” said Michael Kukiela, vice president and general manager of supply chain management and shared services for Schneider Logistics, which typifies the out-of-the-box thinking that’s encouraged among the company’s senior management. “We’re here to solve problems that trucking can’t solve alone.”
   In recent years, Schneider has poured millions of dollars annually into both systems and staffing to expand its supply chain services. Last year, the company completed a complex, multiyear implementation of the Oracle-based transportation management system, in addition to adding inbound and outbound visibility tools and procurement technology.
   This technology investment has allowed Schneider to advance its logistics services, while providing a differentiated and integrated service to its customers. 
   “Combined, the Schneider suite of technology offers unparalleled visibility, planning, and forecasting,” Kukiela said. “Customers can build hypothetical scenarios from their active bids to test competing models for the best fit within their supply chains.
   “Our technology then coordinates production orders to the most ideal transportation methods and practices that allow for a more prescriptive and cost-effective delivery on the inbound side,” he explained. “Our TMS examines exceptions while planning either dynamically or from an established routing guide. It also becomes the basis for business insight and continuous improvement, as well as carrier scorecarding.”
   Schneider’s new TMS has also enhanced its ability to provide greater outbound visibility to shippers, especially with unexpected volume surges or service changes, in addition to reducing claims by as much as 30 percent. 
   And all of this is what Schneider’s logistics customers are experiencing now. “You can only imagine the speed of improvement in performance and level of visibility for a new customer of Schneider Logistics,” Kukiela said.
   “Historically, we have worked with automotive and other large manufacturing companies—those with $100 million-plus transportation spends,” Kukiela said. “We are now targeting small to midsized companies with as little as $1.5 million to $2 million annual freight spend. These companies don’t have to buy a TMS because Schneider already has it, along with the thought leadership.”
   The company also finds itself increasingly working with shippers on procurement, network optimization, and supply chain activities in Asia and Europe.
