Integrated 3PL warehousing, transportation, and on-site workforce - across13 facilities in IA, NV, TX, and OK. Engineered for the tempo of modern manufacturing.
Manufacturing leaders we talk to share the same three problems. We built our service stack to fix all three at once.
Four contracts for warehousing, trucking, brokerage, and labor - and a finger-pointing match every time something slips.
You email a 3PL and wait six hours for a count. Production planners are flying blind. Cycle counts feel like archaeology.
Food-grade, bonded, lot traceability, recall readiness - your last audit took three weeks of frantic spreadsheets.
Iowa cluster of 10 facilities feeds the heaviest manufacturing tempo in the Midwest - flanked by McCarran, Dallas, and Sperry for West and South-Central reach.
Warehousing, trucking, freight brokerage, and on-site labor under one roof. One accountable partner, one invoice, zero finger-pointing between vendors when a load runs late.
Datex Footprint WMS gives you a live customer portal with lot, serial, and expiration tracking - plus EDI/API integration into your SAP, Oracle, or NetSuite ERP.
Bonded warehousing, food-grade storage, AI-powered facility security (Verkada), and full chain-of-custody records from receiving dock to outbound trailer.
From the moment your inbound load hits a JT dock, you can watch it travel through the warehouse in real time - and so can your ERP.
Inbound dock check, ASN match, pallet-level scan into Datex.
Configurable quality checks, hold management, directed putaway.
Lot, serial, expiration tracked. Visible in your portal & ERP.
FEFO/FIFO picking, kitting, value-add, parcel or LTL labels.
JT Transportation or your carrier. Tracked end-to-end on McLeod.
We don't pretend to be everything to everyone. We do work with manufacturers who can't afford supply-chain surprises.
Your assembly line stops if a single SKU isn't on the dock at 6:00 AM. Dealer replenishment spikes during planting and harvest. Peak-season surge capacity is a yearly fire drill, and your existing 3PL treats parts like dry goods.
Sound familiar? John Deere–profile manufacturers tell us the same story.
Just-in-time line feeding from 10 Iowa facilities within 30 miles of major manufacturing hubs. Surge labor through LIVIT - no scrambling for temps when volume doubles in April.
FSMA, GFSI, AIB, recall readiness - every quality auditor wants something different, and your current 3PL hands you a stack of paper. One mislabeled lot can cost you a customer or trigger a recall that wipes out a quarter.
Sound familiar? Kemin-profile food & ingredient companies live this every day.
Food-grade storage with full lot/expiration tracking in Datex Footprint WMS. Configurable QC workflows, hold management, and inspection logs you can hand an auditor in minutes - not weeks.
Imported components stuck at the port. Customs paperwork bouncing between three vendors. Your ERP can't talk to your 3PL's "system" (a spreadsheet emailed at 4 PM Central). International freight handoffs are where deals go to die.
Sound familiar? Danfoss-profile industrial manufacturers know the script.
Bonded warehousing for duty deferral. McLeod TMS for full-stack EDI handshakes with your SAP/Oracle ERP. Multi-modal coordination - port to bonded facility to final-mile dealer, all on one bill of lading.
You sell into Amazon, Shopify, and your own DTC site - three different label specs, three different SLAs, and a returns process that swallows margin alive. Black Friday breaks something every year.
Pre-built parcel carrier integrations and e-commerce platform connectors. Pick/pack/kitting, multi-channel fulfillment, and surge labor for peak weeks - without a four-week ramp.
JT Transportation runs the long haul, regional routes, and final-mile to your dealers. One dispatcher, one load board, one accountable partner.
Strategic Midwest density with West, Southwest, and South-Central expansion. Hover the map or list to explore each location.
Slide the inputs to your real volume. We'll show you a directional monthly estimate. Real quotes always include line-item detail and volume discounts - this is a starting point.
We don't sell you logistics. We sell you the absence of logistics problems — so your team can build the things you actually make money on.
We'll model it, quote it, and walk you through the warehouse it's coming out of. No sales pitch theater - just an operations conversation with someone who actually runs the dock.
