Thank you for participating in the October 2016 Logistics Managers Index survey. We appreciate your help. We believe that the insights you provided are pretty interesting - as you can see from the charts below.
The Logistics Managers Index is a cooperative venture between several supply chain management universities and CSCMP. We welcome any feedback you might have about the LMI. You can send Dr. Dale Rogers of Arizona State University a note at dale.rogers@asu.edu.
We will be asking you to continue to participate so that we can understand trends over the long run. You are welcome to take the survey for November 2016. If you have already taken the survey, an additional email linking to a shorter version of the survey, in which no demographic questions are asked, will also be sent to you shortly. Or, you can take the version of the survey you took last month at
This month’s Index includes insights from 75 Logistics Managers representing firms operating on 6 continents, with revenues ranging from <$500,000 to over $1B. Respondents provided insights on current and future trends regarding Warehousing, Inventory, and Transportation

- Inventory - Levels have decreased and Costs have increased. Over the next year, they are both expected to increase at a steady rate.
- Warehousing - Utilization and Costs are increasing, and are expected to continue increasing, with Prices increasing at a faster rate than utilization. Capacity is currently down month-over-month, but is expected to increase at a greater rate than either Utilization or Price.
- Transportation - Capacity is down significantly, and is expected to increase slightly over the next year. Utilization and Price have increased and are both expected to increase going forward, with Price increasing at a faster rate.
