The Future of Logistics Logistic & Supply Chain Trends External Forces Optimization Risks Sustainability Technology Equipment Advances Warehousing Modal Trends

External Forces “The Past Does Not Reflect the Future” Demographics – urbanization, aging population, shifting wealth and economic power Technology – social media, new communication technologies, “Cloud” based economy Health and Safety – visibility/ accountability for consumers, suppliers, manufacturers Sustainability – scarcity – CO 2, climate change, alternative fuels Regulatory Pressures

Consumer Driven  Multiple partners connected  Systems Collaboration  Shared Assets & Competencies Optimization “Trading partners share information in their relationships”

 Theft and counterfeit  Higher valued goods  Global Supply  Increase in Fuel Prices  Government Regulation  Sharing of Information  Margin Compression Risks What risks surround supply chain?

Sustainability Three Dimensional 1.Environmental - Reduce Carbon Footprint 2.Society – Improved lifestyle 3.Economy - Transportation Efficiency

Sustainability Global Strategic Initiatives: Source Locally Long Term Relationships with Suppliers Buy larger quantities from fewer suppliers Keep Operations Lean Reverse logistics Less petroleum dependent supplies / transport lanes Alternative fuels and energy

Sustainability Solutions Shared – Infrastructure, transportation, warehousing – Planning, ordering, manufacturing – Recycle, reuse Efficient Assets – Modernize equipment – Green buildings – Alternative fuels (biodiesel), natural gas

Sustainability Solutions Alternative Power Units Satellite monitoring system SmartWay Transport Partnership Alaska’s Green Star program Carlile purchased Kenworth’s First Hybrid Tractor in PNW

Technology Trends – “Cloud” Utilization Collaborative systems – Accessibly Pads Onboard equipment Freight technology Goals Visibility and accessibility resolving issues Real time and forecasting instead of reacting “Engaging with the user versus talking to the user”
