6. Types of 3PL providers
Transportation:
Services extend beyond transportation to offer a comprehensive set of logistics offerings.
Leveraged 3PLs use assets of other firms. Nonleveraged 3PLs use assets belonging
solely to the parent firm. Ryder, Schneider Logistics, FedEx Logistics, and UPS Logistics
are examples of 3PLs.
Warehousing/Distribution:
Many, but not all, have former warehouse and/or distribution experience. Transition to
integrated logistics has been less complex than for the transportation based providers.
DSC Logistics, USCO, Exel*, Caterpillar Logistics, and IBM are examples of
warehouse/distribution-based 3PLs. * Exel regained their position as the world’s largest
after an acquisition, recently purchased by DHL**
3PLs are external suppliers that perform all or part of a company’s logistics functions, including:
7. Information Technology:
Significant growth and development in this alternative category of Internet-
based, business-to-business, electronic markets for transportation and
logistics services. Transplace and Nistevo are examples of information-
based 3PLs.
Financial service:
Provide freight payment and auditing, cost accounting and control, and
tools for monitoring, booking, tracking, tracing, and managing inventory.
Cass Information Systems, CTC, GE Information Services, and
FleetBoston are examples of financial-based 3PLs.

9. 1. Better Vendor Organization
A 4PL helps connect you with different logistics providers. That way, you don’t have to worry about the hassle of
talking to multiple partners. They’ll make sure everything runs smoothly between the 3PLs and you.
2. Solution-Oriented Process
4PLs come up with solutions that fit exactly what your business needs instead of relying on the existing
infrastructure of vendors. It’ll make it easier for you to meet the specific needs of your industry.
3. A Single View Of The Supply Chain
A 4PL will connect to multiple 3PLs and give you one view of important information like KPIs, inventory, order
status, shipment status, billing, and EDI. You’ll understand your supply chain better to adjust to market changes
quickly. Having this level of visibility also means you can meet customer demand quickly.
4. Advanced Technology
Fourth-party logistics providers have better technology. The goal of their technology is to ease communication
across the board and let you look at everything in real-time.
5. Higher Returns And Lower Expenses
You’ll likely save money using a 4PL because they’ll try and get you the lowest transportation rates possible.
Advantages of 4PL
10. 1. Limited Control Over The Logistics Process
One drawback of using a 4PL is limited logistics and fulfillment process control. This is probably good if
you’re not an expert in this area. But it’s not a cheap option for smaller companies because their services will
be expensive.
2. Existing Prejudices Towards Other Companies
Some 3PLs may not like other companies that don’t rely on them, making it difficult for you to work in some
ways.
3. Limited Internal Capacity
Working with a 4PL will make it hard to go back to in-house logistics. You won’t have the experience, skills,
or ability to run your logistics.
4. Higher Costs
Hiring a 4PL can be expensive. They would handle the entire supply chain the same way an in-house team
would, which would be more expensive than other logistics management options
Disadvantages of 4PL
11. A 3PL is a subset of 4PL.
A 3PL focuses on day-to-day tasks, whereas a 4PL
manages the entire supply chain.
A 3PL is one of two contact points in the supply chain,
whereas a 4PL is the single point of contact for the entire
supply chain.
A 3PL addresses transactional issues, whereas a 4PL,
focuses on optimizing the entire supply chain.
A 3PL often owns warehousing or transportation assets,
whereas a 4PL is often non-asset-based.
A 3PL relies on partners to lower costs, whereas a 4PL
looks for ways to cut costs themselves.
A 3PL uses the resources of the company while 4PL uses
the resources of multiple companies.
3PL companies offer logistics services while 4PL
companies offer strategic supply chain management.
