2 Ways Couriers Preserve Your Cold Chain With Supply Chain Management

Your supply chain. The outline of your entire organization. All of the people, processes, activities, information, and resources that allow you to provide top notch products and services to your customers.

In order for your business to remain viable, you rely on your supply chain staying intact. The longer that supply chain is, though, the more links associated with your process from start to finish, the more likely you are to have disruption. And nobody likes disruption. Nobody.

Don’t worry, though, couriers are here to help. Especially refrigerated delivery couriers. These experts in the process of temperature controlled transportation are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to move your goods, whether there are just a few of them, or thousands of them; whether it’s a one-stop manifest or an entire route.

When you add temperature control into your supply chain, you automatically increase stress on the chain to a level 10. Items that require constant temperature control from receipt, to transport, to delivery include things like vaccinations, food distribution deliveries, and hazardous materials. Any break in the cold chain can cause complete loss of the product, or render the items unsafe for consumption or use.

That’s why when your items require temperature control, it’s best to allow a supply chain and logistics expert to handle them. A professional refrigerated courier has experience operating vehicles with temperature control components, and understands the complex processes behind moving temperature specific goods. They also are licensed and insured, just in case the unpredictable happens, and your items don’t arrive in top condition.

While a professional courier can assist your supply chain in a number of ways, there are two specific and literal ways that our DFW refrigerated couriers can ensure your supply chain stays intact.

Continuous Cold Chain

The first way our couriers can assist in managing your supply chain is by keeping your cold chain continuous. Upon receiving your items, a good courier records the actual temperature and the desired temperature. This is then monitored throughout the transportation process via advanced technology and cold delivery vehicles.

Whether it’s a straight truck full of cold items or a few items in a refrigerated delivery van, the cold chain stays continuous thanks to rigorous efforts of the refrigerated delivery courier and strict maintenance of all refrigerated vehicles. If your items require short term or long term storage along the way, that’s ok too. Temperature controlled storage is available in a centrally located, secure warehouse. Logistics processes such as pick and pack, distribution, and product fulfillment make your deliveries even easier to move when you’re ready for them to come out of storage.

Continuous Chain of Custody

A second way our DFW refrigerated delivery team can ensure your items arrive in pristine condition, no matter where they’re headed, is by keeping them in the hands of our team of professionals from start to finish. That means no hand offs, and no consolidating with a third party. You expect the best from your delivery experience, which is why we’d only trust your cold items with Eagle Express team members.

We can assure there will be no break in your supply chain because we’re in charge of your logistics supply chain from receipt to the final mile.
