Armstrong & Associates Inc. (A&A), a supply chain management market research and consulting firm, has launched a new website, 3PLAdvisor.com, to provide 3PL customers with a platform for sharing customer relationship experiences about their third-party logistics providers (3PLs). In-turn, 3PLs can receive feedback from customers at no cost. Customers can anonymously rate their current 3PLs and send request for information (RFI) forms to 3PLs they may be interested in working with.
A&A will review each 3PL customer review and 3PL profile submission prior to it being displayed on the new website, explains company president Evan Armstrong. “While customers can anonymously post reviews of their 3PLs, we strictly prohibit 3PLs from evaluating other 3PLs and strive to ensure that the site contains the most accurate 3PL profile information possible.”
As of its launch, 3PLAdvisor.com contains the following profile information on over 280 3PLs:
