Supply chain veterans Reid Klosowsky and Bill Maroney partnered with NT Logistics, Inc. to launch Freight Think, an advisory group dedicated to optimizing transportation strategy to increase efficiency and reduce costs.
“I’m excited to partner with Reid and Bill as we launch this venture,” says Lynn Gravley, president and CEO of NT Logistics. “With a combined 40-plus year history of supply chain leadership, they have managed billions of dollars in annual spend, optimizing both performance and cost by bridging the gaps that all too often exist between the ‘product’ people and the ‘logistics’ people. Plus, they are keenly aware of just how time-strapped teams are today, so they’ve built services to quickly get in and get out, so shippers can act fast.”

- Klosowsky and Maroney use a four-part advisory approach to negotiate, validate, analyze and optimize freight expenditures. The solution is built for speed with an average elapsed timeline of two weeks to present findings.
