2023 EVENT PROGRAMME Sessions
Rethinking Freight Formats
Traditional freight formats that have formed the basis of project logistics contracts for decades are no longer proving fit for purpose. The dramatic rate fluctuations seen over the past couple of years has often made entering into fixed rate contacts risky business. This panel will bring together a cross section of the supply chain to discuss how changing the freight format model could be the best option for a collaborative approach to de-risking engagement on projects.
