LPS Releases LogProTM –TL
Fuel and Accessorial Solution
Verona, KY ‐ Logistics and Procurement Services, LLC (LPS) announced today the release of their
LogPro™‐TL solution. LPS is a management service company that provides procurement
expertise, consulting, and solutions to help their customers manage contracts for
transportation and supply chain services that delivery better pricing, value, and services.
“LogPro is our proprietary contracting solution for establishing best pricing and standards for
carrier contract terms, accessorial charges, and pricing,” said Hogan, President of LPS. “Our
LogPro family of solutions establishes the framework for effectively standardizing contract
terms, rates, and services for transportation and logistics services ranging from all modes of
transportation to third party outsourcing of transportation, distribution, and logistic services.”
“We find many customers that do not have a standard basis for fuel surcharges and common
accessorial charges. Hogan said, “Over the last 10 years the transportation industry has seen a
shift in the total cost of transportation with fuel and other accessorial costs making up 40% or
more of the total transportation cost. Fuel is a specific area of expense that has changed
dramatically; we typically identify 5‐15% cost reductions related to fuel and accessorial
charges”.
Proprietary methods coupled with LogPro™ typically averages 10‐30% cost reductions in
our customers’ transportation spend that can be delivered in 90 days or less in direct operating
cash to their bottom line. “We started offering our customers the option to use our fuel and
accessorial terms in May and have seen many companies reduce cost through our
standardization of fuel surcharges.”
“We had a lot of truckload quotes and did not have a framework to compare fuel surcharges and
miscellaneous service charges like stop off, unloading, etc that can more than double our
transportation costs. We used LogProTM‐TL to contract our fuel with carriers and reduced our costs
in less than 30 days. I highly recommend LPS and the TL solution for anyone that does not have
their own standardized surcharges for fuel and accessorial charges.”
