1.2.         Research Problem

Transport firms are voicing out their inability to achieve desired growth and return on investment (ROI) despite huge resources invested therein. Experts assert that    these firms are not economically viable because they fail to adopt integrating logistics philosophy which brings together functional activities, plans, forecasts and strategies, and relates them to the overall mission and corporate objectives of the firm. As such, they lose money, time and resources with the silos method that short circuits relevant information across the organization. Also, the functional units all have their own goals and objectives, while the people working in them also have widely differing views, individual goals etc about how to achieve such goals this leads to conflicts and hindered profit, corporate growth and return on investments.
