It’s important to keep your products flowing smoothly through transportation, warehouses and 3PL logistics channels. But could your logistics and distribution costs be lower? Can your customer service quality be improved?
For an existing system, LDSS will review and then compare your organization’s services, operations and costs with industry standards to determine what areas might be improved. Further analysis will include distribution flows and impacts on logistics costs under varying conditions. Our team will help implement a plan to optimize the shipping and billing processes, resulting in improved organizational efficiency and a positive effect on the bottom line.
LDSS offers an objective viewpoint based on decades of experience in warehouse operations and systems. Our company is dedicated to serving the best interest of the customer at all times, and makes recommendations based on industry best practices, not vendor commitments.

Closed Loop Logistics
LDSS consultants help with integration of product design with logistics to optimize use of materials throughout the entire supply chain. Closed loop logistics provides a process for reuse and recycling of packaging materials in an efficient manner, which in turn helps to reduce the cost of new packaging materials.
LDSS helps organizations establish tracking of reusable plastic containers using RFID technology. To further optimize operational productivity, integration of RFID readers with lift equipment allows you to automatically track movements without human intervention.
Packaging management offers a cost effective benefit, while contributing to a cleaner environment. LDSS can assist with establishing layer pad and pallet pool management in order to properly dispose of wastes, and develop a process for recycling, repair or reuse.
Contract Warehousing
Contract warehousing services are ideal for clients wishing to establish a distribution center in a particular region. LDSS operates successful contract warehousing operations for companies seeking long-term supply chain solutions at dedicated facilities.
Advantages of contract warehousing include a specialized labor force, facility, and standard operating procedures designed specifically to the client’s operation. This ensures an abundance of resources as the client does not have to share labor, equipment, dock doors, or floor space with other clients. Cost effective contract warehousing services include:
- Transloading.
- Cross docking.
- Pick and pack operations.
- Labeling.
- Packaging.
- Inventory control.
- Just-in-time inventory management.
- Pallet exchange services.
- Local trucking and local drayage.
- Stretch and shrink wrapping.
- Quality control.
- Lot number control.
- Import and export handling.
- Containerization.
- Pool distribution.
LDSS combines industry experience, advanced technologies and proven methods to deliver effective logistics solutions to support your organization.
