DISCOVER: TIA offers subscribers the opportunity to learn more about Logistics Plus' Ukraine relief efforts. Logistics Plus had 50 of their own employees there and are now providing relief to them and other refugees. You can access the Logistics Plus Ukraine relief here. Their fund was seeded with $500K from their owner/CEO and has raised another $138K+. All funds go directly to help refugees. The Logistics Plus team are also working with local politicians using their warehouse to collect much needed physical items, and they will be managing the transportation of that container to Poland in early April.

TIA Call to Action: TIA Members, as you know over the last year and a half we have been working diligently on your behalf to include DOT licensed property brokers in the C-TPAT program, a public/private partnership focused on hardening the supply chain. Department of Homeland Security’s decision more than 10 years ago to exclude you from C-TPAT has cost you all countless business opportunities. We have legislation to start to fix this. S.2322 in the Senate and H.R. 6826 in the House of Representatives will allow 10 TIA members to be included in this program through a pilot program. This starts the process of opening up C-TPAT to any 3PL who would like to join. Use this link, with a pre-written note, to call on your elected leaders to co-sponsor and support S.2322 and H.R 6826. Education

Given the rapid movement in the market last year, we are trying to get the info to you as quickly as possible, but we need your help to pull this off. You will gain 3 free months of access to our compensation tool for providing your historical pay data. Our fee for 2021’s data is $100 per month, billed in 3-month increments. What you need to participate:
As always, we adhere to all DOJ rules regarding compensation surveys. Even if you are no longer in this role, we still need your help—please forward this email to your finance, HR, sales, or operations leader contacts at EVERY freight broker you know. The more Industry-wide participation we have, the more valuable the tool is for everyone.

We have just updated the Member Resource Library with a new section devoted exclusively to whitepapers TIA has produced over the years. These resources are designed to help our members gain a better understanding of issues, trends, and developments in the industry as they navigate an increasingly crowded 3PL marketplace. The Member Resource Library also includes a collection of guidelines and frameworks, contracts, legal cases, and other resources to provide TIA Members with a knowledge bank for 3PL success.
