heads up

September 1, 2003

Two major logistics organizations that have been headless for several months have selected new professional leadership.

On Sept. 1, John B. Ficker, who was logistics development manager for Weyerhaeuser Co., became president of the 96-year-old National Industrial Transportation League, whose members include many of the nation's largest industrial shippers. He succeeds Peter J. Gatti, a vice president of the organization who had served as acting president of the organization since March, when Ed Emmett left the post.

Earlier this summer, NASSTRAC, a shipper organization that focuses primarily on less-than-truckload, parcel, and express shipping, chose a new head as well, when it named Brian Everett as the group's executive director. Everett is also executive director of the Transportation Marketing & Communications Association. He has more than 20 years' experience in marketing in the transportation industry.

Lessons from CSCMP’s Annual Report Card for Shippers and Carriers

DCV-TV 4: Viewer Contributed
Recently, the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP) released their 33rd Annual State of Logistics Report which is created by AT Kearny. I've viewed this as basically a "Report Card" for shippers and carriers since it offers a comprehensive view of what they both have dealt with in the past year,...
