Long-time transportation industry consultant Lee Clair has launched Transportation and Logistics Advisors, LLC, described as “management advisors with deep experience in transportation and logistics, and energy and resources.” The firm includes Clair, John Kelsh, Robert Sabath and Steven Fox.
“For more than 25 years, TandLA staff have been providing clients valuable insights regarding growth strategies, pricing, operations, capital investment planning, cost control, acquisition diligence, pre-divestiture planning, supply chain strategy, channel strategy, and regulatory and litigation support,” notes Clair. “In transport, we have assisted leading carriers, intermediaries, investors, equipment manufacturers and transport services providers on a wide range of domestic and international trade issues. Our experience spans truckload, less-than-truckload, rail, intermodal, inland-barge, air freight, small package, express, forwarding and customs brokerage, truck brokerage, transportation management, bulk and container shipping, warehousing, 3PL outsourcing, e-Commerce, e-Fulfillment and final mile delivery.
“In logistics, we have assisted manufacturers and retailers, importers and other shippers to reduce supply chain cost, increase reliability, lower inventories and in how to make the supply chain part of the corporate strategy. In energy and resources, we grew into the sector from the supply chain, but have since expanded to include market strategies, operations and capital investment. Most of our staff have come from large consulting firms, boutique transportation and logistics consulting firms, and transportation service providers.”
