Jordan Kass

At the most recent edition of the North American Supply Chain Executive Summit series we sat down with Jordan Kass, the president of TMC, a division of C.H. Robinson, to talk about how supply chain executives are rethinking their logistics in the post-pandemic business landscape of frequent disruption, and how 4PLs are contributing to that ongoing conversation. While third-party logistics companies have always and will always be an important component of supply chains at local, regional, national, and international levels, 4PLs —organizations that take on many of the planning, oversight, and coordination powers of a supply chain organization, including directing and monitoring the actions of 3PLs— are uniquely positioned to modernize and reorganize long-established plans and networks to better meet the needs of today’s businesses. In this conversation we get into what that kind of partnership looks like, how it makes an impact, and what senior supply chain leaders need to be thinking about and learning about as they restructure their organizations for a successful future. Give it a listen!
