The Supply Chain Doctor Will See You Now

Has there ever been a more challenging time to be a logistics professional? As you’re faced every day with growing customer service expectations, rising costs, labor shortages, route closures, and other practical challenges, it can be tough to see the big picture. Out of necessity, most logistics teams are more focused on getting deliveries out the door today than on identifying long-term threats, opportunities, risks, and rewards.    

That’s why Redwood created its new Logistics Assessment. Wherever you are in your journey toward supply chain optimization, Redwood’s team of experienced experts can quickly assess your current status — and provide actionable insights for taking your performance to the next level.  

From strategic issues like network design to the granular details of load building and consolidation, Redwood can prescribe new approaches and best practices that lead to measurable improvements in your most critical key performance indicators (KPIs). 

One of the best features of Redwood's Logistics Health Assessment is that it produces rapid results. In just three weeks, you’ll begin creating the foundation for revenue growth, increased margins, service improvements, improved sustainability, and other benefits.  

Choose Your Own Fitness Plan 

Every logistics team is different, and there’s no “one size fits all” solution that’s going to work for every company. That’s why Redwood lets you design a health checkup, and a fitness plan, that meets your needs. We offer three options: 

• The Tier 1 Foundation Assessment quickly but thoroughly looks at the maturity of your freight processes, technology solutions, and data management practices.   

• The Tier 2 Benchmark Assessment builds on the foundation audit, adding a competitive benchmarking component that compares your practices to logistics industry leaders. 

• The Tier 3 Transformation Assessment encompasses both tiers — and also includes site visits for in-person observations of your operations in action. 

• A La Carte - whether you’re looking to optimize specific areas of your supply chain or seeking expert guidance on broader strategic initiatives, our flexible packages are designed to meet your specific needs and goals.  

No matter which package you choose, your logistics teams will gain rapid insights, practical recommendations, and an action plan for improvement. Every Redwood Logistics Assessment defines both quick wins and longer-term, big-picture opportunities for sustained supply chain leadership. Redwood’s trusted advisors provide an ambitious yet achievable health improvement plan that spans 24 to 36 months. 

Redwood’s Holistic Approach Is Unique in the Field 

Why Redwood? Our assessment approach stands out because it spans logistics strategy, hands-on execution, and technology enablement.  

Based on its firsthand work across thousands of customer engagements, as well as a track record of success that spans two decades, Redwood can assess every part of the working supply chain — including procurement, transportation, operations, forwarding, cross-border & global trade, and warehousing. Redwood also looks at strategic elements like the network model, resource size & scope, and overall logistics performance against key metrics. 

But Redwood is also uniquely qualified to assess how well logistics teams are capitalizing on advanced technology. Redwood looks at real-time connectivity, systems integration, process automation, data sharing & management, analytics, cloud & edge computing, and the use of advanced applications like a transportation management system (TMS) and warehouse management system (WMS). For technologically mature teams, Redwood can assess the potential for innovative applications of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML).    

As a modern 4PL, Redwood offers a comprehensive suite of customer solutions, from brokerage and managed services to cross-border logistics and sustainability improvement. We have relationships with every major provider of logistics software. We have no vested interest in any single solution, service, or technology platform. That enables Redwood to take an objective, agnostic stance as we conduct a Logistics Health Assessment. We genuinely want what’s best for the customer’s business, which is one of the reasons our average customer relationship spans nine years.
