About LEL > Service Strategy
LEL’s success starts and continues with the service we provide our customers.
Large firms that rely on size and wealth to create a competitive advantage can
not make successful solutions. Successful solutions are created and maintained
by the more focused flexible, creative and customer-committed enterprises. Our
goal is to meet each customer's needs, solve its problems and find new
opportunities.
Market Niche
Leading Edge Logistics' operating strategy is simply to provide superior
value to our customer. Our customer base is comprised of manufacturing
and distribution companies that require “time-sensitive” deliveries to their
collective customer base. These customers are not equipped with the internal
resources, technology, or buying power to continually reduce logistics cost.
Logistics Managers are under pressure to produce savings. An increasing pressure
has been placed on small companies to keep their logistics costs in line, due to
driver shortage, trucking industry consolidation, rising fuel and insurance
costs and the market's individual buying power. Leading Edge Logistics has
targeted this market due to our ability to leverage our combined customer’s
budget in order to achieve the best cost. We are able to predict our savings as
well as our margin via a thorough analysis of our customer’s freight prior to
implementation
The Leading Edge Logistics Agency Network
As a full service third party logistics company and a successful truck brokerage
organization, LEL provides an excellent platform for successfully managed
agencies to grow. Our proven track record and financial stability provides for
long term growth as well as a close relationship. Leading Edge Logistics is
committed to this program.
Service 24x7
Each LEL customer works with a dedicated Customer Service team that serves as
your “Traffic Department”. This allows us to adapt to the culture of your
company as well as that of your customers and vendors.
We own no voice mail…therefore anytime you call you will receive a live voice
that is prepared to assist you.
Leading Edge Logistics' Service Commitment is simply to provide superior
service and added value to our customer. We may be the only logistics company in
America that has a dedicated Value Added Services Team ("VAST") office. The VAST
group tracks and traces each and every shipment, measures on time status as well
as measures the KPI benchmarks that we guarantee our customers, as well as
manages claims and customized reporting.
