Research
TIA's Compensation Survey provides invaluable information about logistics firms; salaries and
compensation, their organization, and job descriptions. The TIA Compensation Survey is an essential tool
for any 3PL owner that wants to retain employees and agents in the highly competitive 3PL employment
environment," said Robert Voltmann, President and CEO of TIA. For more information, contact David
Miller at 855-294-6252 x308 or david.miller@prosperiogroup.com.
TIA 3PL Market Report - TIA has created a monthly survey which will gather real operating data from a
carefully selected group of 3PL member firms to yield actual information on the business conditions
within this sector. TIA's members have never had access to empirical data coming directly from active
3PLs but rather have relied on assumptions and extrapolations of trucking and warehousing data
developed by various analysts. TIA's efforts will make available a truly comprehensive report on the
trends and practices of the 3PL industry, providing a representative understanding of what is happening
within this business sector. To subscribe, please contact Cindy Amos at 703-299-5710 or
