Who is Unyson Logistics?
According to Logistics Management’s 2008 “Quest for Quality” awards, they are the highest scoring third party logistics provider based on LM’s ranking of five different competencies. For those unfamiliar with LM’s annual Quest for Quality awards, winners are determined from the results of an annual survey conducted by Logistics Management magazine, where over 2,000 shippers are asked to rank their transportation service providers on a variety of performance criteria.
The ranking criteria for the 3PL category is based on a number of factors including the following:
1. Carrier Selection/Negotiation
2. Order Fulfillment
3. Transportation Distribution
4. Inventory Management
5. Logistics Information Systems
Each company receives a ranking in each of the above areas and then an overall weighted average is given. This year in the 3PL category, Unyson Logistics took the top spot with a weighted average of 38.31, just edging out Expeditors score of 38.14. I guess the most surprising item about this year’s results was that Unyson Logistics didn’t even make the list in 2007.
I still have no idea who they are, but according to this report, I probably should.
