This new series will explore the resurgence of transportation within the supply chain. Recent events have positioned transportation at the forefront of supply chain strategy. Market volatility caused by the pandemic, the subsequent economic downturn, and severe weather events have converged to cause enormous stress on all modes of transportation.

We will explore the various disruptions that occurred and how shippers and transportation providers are pivoting to overcome obstacles and clear the road for smoother operations.

Looking at the current transportation market, many of you are wondering “how did we get here?” You can find some answers in the next installment of NASSTRAC’s Transportation Rising webinar series. Delivered by Truckstop.com, this presentation focuses on how the trillion-dollar US Freight Transportation Marketplace impacts the Global Supply Chain, the US Economy and US consumer. We will set the stage explain how the pandemic and subsequent economic slowdown created the environment to cause extreme volatility and disruption in the transportation marketplace. The presentation includes an outline the leading indicators of how the US Economy will grow out of the unprecedented “pandemic” year and what the new normal will most likely look like for participants in the greater supply chain.
