In a pinch for time, there is only one way to get your goods to where you need them to be, FAST! That's of course to use expedited freight.
"I needed it there yesterday"..."Time is money"… "I need it there ASAP. Does this sound familiar? However, logistics will be found to play a huge role when you consider time-sensitive freight and the management of it. American Manufacturing Solutions can help to improve the stress of time-sensitive packages, and expedited freight can prove a helpful tool when time is of the essence.
Imagine this with me… You're the factory producing parts for the newest car model, of course, you have assembly lines going around the clock. One of your machines breaks down, and all you need is a special order ball bearing. You can only get it from one place. So, you call, make your order, just to find out they can get it to you in 2 weeks. It's hard to imagine but think of all the repercussions this factory will face. At any given time, a factory has hundreds of workers in a line, all with a job to be done. Now, if one of those workers cannot perform their duty, it's completely possible it will hold up the entire line. For two full weeks...this would be a complete disaster. Think of all the time and money lost in that waiting period. It has the potential to negatively affect hundreds of people.

E-commerce may not be an emergency but definitely depend on fast reliable shipping. In reality, the difference between a sale might just be the availability of fast delivery time.
