This report documents a comparison of the Defense Logistics Agency's (DLA) current transportation rates to various rate schedules used in both the government and the private sector. Applicable transportation rate schedules were obtained from the General Services Administration (GSA), the Military Traffic Management Command (MTMC), and a nationwide motor carrier. Comparison transportation costs were calculated using actual shipment data and the applicable rate schedules. DLA's shipment costs were based on the actual transportation costs. Based on the results of this study, it is recommended that consideration be given to the possible expansion of the Government Traffic Program to include less-than-truckload shipments.
