Why Shippers Are Losing Millions at the Loading Dock Right Now!

from WHAT THE TRUCK?!? · host FreightWaves

Live from FreightWaves' Domestic Supply Chain Summit, Malcolm Harris and Michael Vincent bring you a special edition of WHAT THE TRUCK?!? featuring three conversations focused on the future of supply chain operations, freight technology, carrier compliance, and risk management. First, Tom Hurwitch, Founder and Principal of Basis Solutions, explains why the next evolution of logistics isn't simply exchanging data—it's operationalizing it. Learn how leading shippers are leveraging AI, automation, and integrated supply chain visibility to reduce costs, improve efficiency, and move toward autonomous decision-making. Next, Andrew Wimer of Descartes joins the show to break down the industry-shaking Montgomery ruling and what it means for freight brokers. The discussion covers carrier vetting, documentation requirements, compliance best practices, insurance implications, and how technology can help brokers demonstrate reasonable care in an increasingly scrutinized environment. Plus, the team previews an upcoming conversation with Verify Carrier's Andrey Drotenko on why the pickup point remains one of the most vulnerable moments in the supply chain.
