Dedicated Contract Carriage (DCC) is a transportation service where a logistics provider offers a dedicated fleet and management for a specific customer, tailored to meet their unique shipping needs under a long-term contract.
In Dedicated Contract Carriage, a carrier provides exclusive equipment and personnel to serve one client’s transportation needs, ensuring customized service and efficiency. This model allows businesses to outsource their fleet management without the capital investment in their own assets. DCC can help companies optimize their supply chain while providing flexibility and control over logistics operations.
Dedicated Contract Carriage involves a logistics provider managing your transportation needs with their own fleet of vehicles, drivers, and equipment, specifically for your business. This solution helps you maintain greater control over your supply chain while reducing the need for investment in fleet management. It can also streamline operations, improve delivery efficiency, and offer flexibility, especially for companies with high transportation demands.
