Asset vs. Non-Asset
Third-party logistics providers (3PLs) can be divided into two broad categories - asset based and non-asset based. Asset based 3PLs own some of the assets used in supply chain management, which often includes transportation-related assets such as trucks, distribution centers and warehouses. Non-asset based 3PLs do not own such assets. Each sort of provider has unique methods and advantages.
