On-Time Performance of Shipments Through The Los Angeles Regional Freight Consolidation Center.

Abstract

The On-Time Performance of Shipments Through The Los Angeles Regional Freight Consolidation Center study is an analysis of service to customers after implementation of the Regional Freight Consolidation Program. The Los Angeles Regional Freight Consolidation Center (RFCC) is one freight pooling hub in the Regional Freight Consolidation Program. Customers are receiving only 80 percent of their freight on time. The policy of the Regional Freight Consolidation Center Program Office is: depots have a maximum of 14 days to deliver shipments to the RFCC and the RFCC has a maximum of 7 days for pooling and delivery to the customer. The six primary DLA depots are not delivering 95 percent of their shipments to the RFCC within 14 days. However, the RFCC is delivering 98.9 percent of its pooled shipments to the customer within 7 days. It was recommended that the depots make additional efforts to reduce handling times for shipments.
