These slides show how slow decision making in last mile logistics has left last mile to be a source of the most untapped value in sand’s value chain. We cover why it is challenging to make fast decisions in last mile and the cost of those slow decisions. Finally, we introduce the concept of digital transformation, and how it differs from todays digital solutions.

3. Complexity of Logistics Makes Fast Decision Making Challenging
Dynamically changing environment with many different factors slow down “human” decision making
350+ Loads/Well Multiple Loaders Multiple Wells
Factors that Contribute to Slow Human
Decision Making:
Multiple loaders with:
• Variable wait times
• Variable status
• Limited lanes
• Limited capacity
Multiple wells with:
• Variable demand
• Limited on pad storage
• Limited unload points
Multiple Trucks with:
• Multiple vendors per well
• Variable operational status

4. Slow Decision Frequency Result in NPT and Detention

Sand Drought (Non-Productive Time) and Trucking Floods (Detention) are the Inevitable Result
