• Tactical or Strategic Opportunity For Shippers?
• How 70% of Shippers Approach The Situation*
– Running a Bid to get a better rate…may be Web enabled – No relationship, No lane/cargo optimization…It’s all about Price
• How “Best In Class” Companies Do It
– Strategic supplier/partner relationship focus – Easy to implement/optimize bids…e-Sourcing platform (enhanced) – Process is Fair & Transparent to suppliers

Best Practice - China Ocean Freight
Inbound Ocean Project (March `12):
• 7 lanes in Asia to deliver to Shanghai and Dalian ports
• Provided estimated quantity of next 6 months
• Invited 4 incumbents to participate…no “rabbits”
• Used e-action tool (ease of access) and straight forward bid structure
(1 round pre-bid and 2 rounds sealed auctions with rank)
• Carrier’s pre-bid became their starting price during the bidding.
• Due to limited lanes, Carriers need to quote all lanes…no “cherry
picking”
• Savings is 15% (Lowest vs. Average Initial)

Best Practice – Global Ocean Freight
Global Ocean Project (April `12):
• Global project management/execution moved from NA to China
• 2,000 lanes, 20+ ocean carriers (all pre-qualified), $180MM in annual
spend
• Required real-time optimization for carrier bids with weighting for
price, transit times and other non-price factors.
• Multi-rounds of bidding took place over the span of 3 months with final
face-to-face negotiations focused only on specific lanes or carrier
issues.
• Carriers could quote as many lanes as they felt they could handle…focus
was balancing between price and service quality
• Savings is 10% (vs. `11) 9
