Transplace, a Texas-based third party logistics (3PL) and logistics technology provider, has been picked by US chemicals producer Elementis Specialties to undertake its domestic transport management, including carrier management, truck tendering and freight bill reconciliation. The appointment, the company say, "validates Transplace's position in the chemical industry" after its recent acquisition of SCO Logistics, a move that brought with it "a comprehensive chemical vertical offering backed by subject matter expertise, deep industry understanding and experience". Transplace asserts that it will now "deliver cost savings, enhance service levels, improve visibility and allow the specialty chemical company to focus on more strategic projects".
