Insourcing or Outsourcing Ocean Operations? How Shippers Can Make an Informed Decision

Since sea freight is a vast industry that involves complex functions and multiple players spread across continents, large shippers often rely on third-party logistics providers (3PLs) and freight forwarders for hassle-free and successful order fulfillment. But thanks to the power of automation and technology-enabled tools and platforms, several shippers are now in a position to insource and automate a wide range of tasks and activities that they previously outsourced.

The question, however, is this - how do shippers make an informed decision on whether to outsource your operations or handle them in-house? More importantly, how do you determine which parts of your operations to outsource and which to insource?
