Q: What is logistics workforce
outsourcing?
A: In short, it is the use of a firm to
provide you with resources for
recruiting, screening and acquiring
qualified human resources to operate a
logistics or trucking operation. In
addition, it includes managing the costs
of compliance management imposed on
every motor carrier by the U.S.
Government.
A major issue facing the transportation
industry is a high demand for qualified
commercial truck drivers and logistics
personnel, and the costs of federal
compliance. Companies along the supply
chain are increasingly turning to
outsourcing so they can focus on their
core competencies. You can use this
strategy to help with your logistics
workforce management. This approach has
evolved as a major trend among the
nation's leading transportation and
logistics firms.
Q: Why would I utilize outsourcing
rather than hire my own drivers or other
logistics personnel?
A: The average driver turnover rate for
the transportation industry is more than
100% annually. At a cost of more than
$6,500 per driver (more, by some
estimates), this creates a huge expense
for companies involved in the physical
supply chain.
The costs of personnel attrition,
combined with pressure for net growth
creates an urgent need to turn to
outside organizations for help in
managing these issues.
The need is compounded for companies
whose core business is not
trucking/logistics (retailers, etc.) The
management of a transportation workforce
may be a costly distraction. An
outsourcing firm allows these companies
to focus on their core competencies.
Q: Why should I consider TransForce?
A: TransForce is uniquely different from
any other firm in our business in
several very important ways:

retained by many Fortune 500
corporations and small to mid-sized
motor carriers, throughout the United
States. Our experience in workforce and
compliance management issues is
unparalleled.
Geographic Coverage. As the largest
end-to-end logistics workforce solutions
firm in the U.S., entirely dedicated to
serving the transportation industry, we
can provide a unified service delivery
system under one management team. This
reduces your multi-vendor management
costs.
Compliance. We are the only firm of our

subsidiary equipped to deliver
professional services on unified
sole-source or unbundled basis. The
costs of compliance (and non-compliance)
can be staggering. We help manage those
costs and programs to maximize value and
effectiveness.
Whether you need a few people, a
complete outsourcing plan or assistance
with compliance issues and training
issues, TransForce is strategically
positioned to help you.
Q: How does the process work?
A: You need to do two simple things:
1. Simply contact us at one of our
nationwide offices or complete the
driver request form on this site.
2. Meet with one of our branch personnel
to outline very clearly for them your
expectations and unique operating
environment. During this meeting we
deliver a Service Agreement, which
outlines exactly what you can/should
expect from us.
The rest is our job.
Q: Is there a contract minimum or
requirement that I use TransForce?
A: No. You are not obligated to use
TransForce once you sign a Service
Agreement. We must earn your business
and trust everyday. You may cancel our
Agreement at anytime.
