About Me

About FreightSavingsTips.com

George Muha has been helping companies improve their supply chains and out perform their competition for three decades.

Welcome to FreightSavingsTips.com – a Blog that provides tips, ideas and best practices to help companies make more money!

My name is George Muha and I’m the guy behind this site!  I’m also a die hard New York Jets fan that has endured many dreadful football seasons (although, I cannot complain too bad about the last few seasons).  Luckily, I also have a wonderful family and a fullfilling business life to offset my Jets fandom!

I’ve spent my entire career as a lead logistics consultant for companies, helping them achieve the ideal now referred to as “supply chain excellence”.  My experience is in successfully helping companies to gain more share holder value and greater profits.

Experience

• Held key operations and business development positions for four separate domestic logistics and transportation companies.
• Expertise in truckload, rail, less-than-truckload and parcel pricing.
• SPECIALTIES
• Helping shippers create multi-channel profit centers within the supply chain.
• Creating, re-engineering and unbundling inbound programs.

Claims to Fame

My articles and ideas have been published in many relevant magazines, newspapers and web news sites.  Some of the publications my articles and ideas have been featured in include Inbound Logistics, Journal of Commerce and Global Logistics Media.  Many of my articles have also be syndicated with in different trade publications representing scores of industries.  I also have had a few letters published in Sports Illustrated (which were mostly centered around being a frustrated Jets fan!).

Why FreightSavingsTips.com?

“…less than 15 percent of firms have a documented supply chain strategy in place.” –The New Supply Chain Agenda (2010 Slone, Dittmann & Mentzer)

The above quote is the main reason I feel compelled to help shippers through articles, videos and my day job as a consultant.  Research conducted by Gartner also sites a direct correlation to “supply chain excellence” and share holder value/profits.  It is my view that not only is achieving operational excellence a great idea for companies, but I feel NOT striving for this ideal can have worse ramifications to any company.

More About Me

Me, my wife and two kids enjoying time with Geoffrey D'Aries.

In addition to my work in the supply chain business I’ve spent time covering high school and youth sports.  This is an enjoyable past time that lead to many enjoyable relationships in all walks of life.  Nothing makes me happier than to watch a young person strive for the goals they’ve set for themselves.  One of my most proud moments was having the opportunity to get to know and write about Geoffrey D’Aries.  Geoffrey is a one of a kind guy who happens to have cerebral palsy.  If you want to feel inspired, read this story I did about Geoffrey for SpinalCord.org.
