“As we monitor the impact of increasing COVID case numbers, plan for general rate increases and prepare for a holiday shipping rush that will strain carriers’ networks, it’s never been more important for shippers to attain the facts, data and actionable insights they need to make strategic decisions,” said Dunham.  “This is particularly true as organizations in many industries, including retail and e-commerce, prepare to negotiate their 2022 shipping contracts with the nation’s largest carriers.”

Held September 14-16, 2021 at the Gaylord National Resort on the banks of the Potomac River, PARCEL Forum is an essential learning event for shipping professionals that serve organizations in the e-commerce and business-to-business sectors.   This year’s conference will also host the fall meetings of both the Package Shippers Association and the International Mailers Advisory Group.

Dunham’s sessions at the conference include:

  • How to Negotiate 2022 Contracts – Thursday, September 16 from 9:40 – 10:20 a.m.
    Dunham will share insights attendees can use in their upcoming contract negotiations with carriers. Some of the themes he will cover and provide actionable insights on include understanding the carriers’ current mindset and situation, what is flexible and what is not, where to focus negotiation efforts, what’s best negotiated for the year to come and how to ensure success in a changing landscape for carriers.
  • Ask Them Anything You Want: An Interactive Q&A with the Transportation Knowledge Team – Thursday, September 16 from 2:00 – 2:40 p.m.
    The closing session will offer attendees a unique chance to pose questions to the conference’s transportation experts and exchange ideas before returning to their organizations and implementing lessons learned at the forum. The panel will be moderated by Brian Coller, manager of parcel freight at Medline Industries. Panelists with Dunham will include Brian Byrd, executive vice president of operations at TransImpact and David Sullivan, vice president of professional services at Shipware.

Co-founded by Dunham with Chad Beville in 2006, Reveel advocates for transparency within the parcel industry and empowers many of the world’s most successful organizations with the shipping intelligence they need to be more profitable and effective.  The company’s Shipping Intelligence™ Platform, a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) based analytics, contract analysis and negotiation solution, uses advanced data science to recommend actions in real-time that shippers can use to lower costs, alerts them of important events like expirations, and establishes the industry’s first performance benchmark – the Reveel Peer Index or RPI – that shippers can use to compare their organizations and effectiveness with peers.
