Periodicity: is managed by floating assets that are spread across customers in same markets but varying demand patterns. Periodicity is the biggest challenge for an asset based company, however, competing in the same market within different industries & a degree of outsourcing helps stabilise the costs and maintain service levels across our customer base.
Example:
Non-dedicated assets are operated in central Canada and multiple customers are sourced and assigned the same assets. By tactfully, improving the quality of demand information and exploiting the statistical economies of scale, we are able to plan capacity and match it to the erratic demand pool, delivering over 95% on-time performance.
