When a company outgrows its existing fulfillment operation and needs to enact a change, the change often comes in the form of a third party partner. The partner’s role can range from providing additional services to designing and managing an entire solution; given the potential responsibility, choosing the right partner can be a daunting task.
What components of a logistics operation should be outsourced, and how do you select a partner that understands your company’s short and long term goals? When changing your fulfillment process to include a third party provider, these are common questions.
Edwin Heslinga, Executive Director, Commerce & Fulfillment Solutions at Ingram Micro Commerce will be at Operations Summit, joining panel of industry experts in a conversation about outsourced logistics. If you’ll be at the show, stop by Booth 203 for a chance to win a BB-8 droid!
