We recently ran the same poll twice, asking: “What’s your biggest transportation and supply chain challenge right now?” In both rounds, the top answer was clear—rising costs and lack of control. The first poll saw 67% of respondents choose this, and the second poll, 47%, reinforcing what we’ve been hearing from customers for months.

This echoed what we’ve been hearing from customers for months: unpredictable pricing, surprise charges, fragmented, unreliable service, and the constant pressure to do more with less.

That’s why companies are increasingly turning to ANDY as their dedicated ground transportation and supply chain partner —because stability, control, and efficiency are no longer just nice to have. They’re essential.

Here’s how ANDY helps businesses take back control of their logistics—and their bottom line:

Predictable pricing – With ANDY, you avoid the chaos of the spot market. Your rates are locked in at the start of your contract and remain stable, so

you can budget accurately without worrying about mid-year rate hikes.

No hidden fees – When you partner with ANDY, the price we agree on is the price you pay. There are no fuel surcharges, admin add-ons, or surprise invoices halfway through your shipment cycle.

Reduced overhead – ANDY takes full responsibility for managing your transportation and supply chain operations, eliminating the need to hire internal staff for dispatching, scheduling, or carrier coordination—cutting both headcount and payroll costs.

Fewer penalties – As your single, dedicated provider, ANDY keeps your shipments on schedule and your processes aligned, reducing the risk of late delivery fees, missed appointments, or costly compliance issues.

Lower warehouse costs – As your dedicated partner, ANDY consolidates your inbound shipments and optimizes delivery schedules, so you're not stuck paying for excess storage or rushed unloading caused by unpredictable arrivals.

No productivity loss – With ANDY managing your transport and supply chain, your teams aren't wasting time chasing late trucks, fixing scheduling gaps, or dealing with supplier misalignment—we keep everything moving so your people can focus on production, not firefighting.

Warehousing & distribution included – If you need storage or last-mile delivery, ANDY builds it right into your contract—no extra coordination, no surprise charges, just one partner handling it all from end to end.

We recognize the importance of cost control, operational stability, and strategic alignment in today’s supply chain landscape.

That’s why ANDY champions dedicated service—not just as a logistics model, but as a true partnership. When we become your dedicated ground transportation and supply chain provider, we integrate seamlessly with your operations, aligning our goals with yours.

This isn't just about solving transportation headaches. It's about helping you transform your supply chain into a strategic advantage—one that supports growth, enhances efficiency, and drives long-term business success.

Let’s talk about how we can build that advantage together.
