Top Logistics
Information Firms Form Alliance
STOUGHTON, WI – Two major logistics information
firms have formed a strategic alliance. The leading European market research
provider, Transport Intelligence, and U.S.-based 3PL experts, Armstrong &
Associates, have pooled their skills to better cover global logistics and supply
chain management.
Under the new alliance, the two companies will
share information on the European, American and Asian, markets. They will offer
each other’s clients the full range of their products, services and expertise.
Better coverage for consulting operations is a significant benefit. The
initiative has already led to a successful collaboration identifying and
matchmaking European and U.S. logistics partners for a company seeking to
develop its global presence.
The major publications of the firms, Who’s Who
In Logistics? Armstrong’s Guide to Global Supply Chain Management, Asia Pacific
Logistics 2004 and European Contract Logistics Leaders are sharing information
to expand their coverage and insight.
John Manners-Bell, Director of Transport
Intelligence, commented on the alliance: “Our clients, whether they are
logistics providers, manufacturers, retailers, consultancies or banks,
increasingly require information on a global basis. By entering into a
partnership with the highly respected logistics research specialists in North
America, we are taking our product offerings to a new level.”
Richard Armstrong, President of Armstrong &
Associates, added, “This alliance gives us the physical presence we need to do a
better job covering Europe. Transport Intelligence is in a better position to do
the legwork for consulting and reporting in Europe and the Mid-East. Both of our
operations are being pulled to Asian coverage. Companies in Japan, Singapore and
China are looking for our help. The industry work experience, backgrounds and
education levels of Transport Intelligence and Armstrong & Associates personnel
are so similar that this is a nice fit.”
