6 PLEASE INSERT CLASSIFICATION HERE Standard reponse 3PL and procuremnt led The standard response to dealing with growing internal requirements and increasing external pressures is to do more of the same and quicker. Procurement to increase the frequency of requesting tenders or change bidding format (e-bids etc) Apply greater pressure upon existing service providers Seek to reduce cost through employing more local low cost providers This may achive a small reduction however result is limited without network design changes Potential to over promise on commercial agreements ending in contractual dispute Significant addtional launch costs with new provider offset any savings Overall, companies that seek to deal with the growing supply chain pressure through continuing current processes will achieve some limited savings and success. This success may be insufficient and unsustainable as the external pressures and internal demands continue to drive increased costs 6 6
