LOGISTICS TECHNOLOGY:
Build Vs. Buy 

In-house software can be built to spec to meet the workflows and challenges of third-party logistics providers (3PLs), freight brokers, and shippers. But it quickly falls out of date, is expensive to maintain, and lacks the latest innovations to drive your business forward. Failing technology leads to unexpected down time and supply chain disruption.  Discover the advantages of buying off-the-shelf software and pitfalls of building in-house, including these points. 

• High up-front costs.
• Outdated connectivity and integration capabilities.
• Little to no data or document sharing.
• No real-time collaboration tools with suppliers, customers, drivers, warehouse staff, etc.
