Navigate transportation challenges in today's energy and freight markets with ease

In today’s dynamic energy and freight markets, transportation teams must navigate a multitude of factors influencing supply chain and transportation networks. Geopolitical tensions, policy decisions, taxes, and extreme weather are just a few of the variables that can impact operations.

While reviewing extensive data and headlines can be overwhelming, it’s crucial to identify what shippers truly need to know about the effects on their daily operations and strategies. Simply staying informed about global market trends is the first step; however, understanding their implications and successfully navigating through them requires deeper insights.

At Breakthrough, we empower best-in-class shippers by providing access to our robust dataset of over $25 billion in annual transportation spend. This enables us to uncover freight optimizations and eliminate distortions from conventional transportation practices, ultimately reducing costs and enhancing network efficiency.

Empowering transportation leaders with market expertise and personalized support

Industry-leading shippers understand the importance of staying ahead, which is why they trust our team of analysts and researchers to keep them informed about the latest trends and economic factors affecting freight, energy, and sustainability.

We also prioritize personalized interaction, meeting with clients one-on-one to answer their network specific questions. This approach ensures you have complete transparency and foresight regarding potential changes in your network, facilitating more effective communication across your organization and leadership.

By navigating the complexities of the market, we empower our clients to focus on moving their goods to market.
