In business, Third-Party Logistics (3PL) has a broad meaning that can be applied to any service contract that involves storing or shipping goods. A 3PL service may be a single service such as transportation or warehouse storage or it can be a system-wide bundle of services capable of managing the entire supply chain. Third-Party Logistics is the function, by which the owner of goods (The Client Company) outsources various elements of the supply chain to one 3PL company. Third-party logistics providers usually specialize in warehousing and transportation services that can be customized to customers’ needs based on market conditions and delivery service requirements for their products and materials. Often, these services go beyond logistics and include value-added services related to the production or procurement of goods, for example, services that integrate parts of the supply chain. Then the provider is called third-party supply chain management provider (3PSCM) or supply chain management service provider (SCMSP).
