Ardmore Power Logistics creates and publishes routing guides for customers. These guides direct shippers to use specific carriers in specific situations. The guides identify the preferred carrier, the transit time, and contact information for the carrier based on shipment destination, size, weight, and urgency.

| Route guide mandated carrier selection concentrates freight spend with a limited number of carriers. The concentration or bundling of transportation spend increases our ability to negotiate volume discounts for our customers. The use of a limited number of carriers allows Ardmore Logistics to better manage their performance. Route guides are a key component of our freight managament process because they reduce cost and enhance service simultaneously.

| The Ardmore system allows customer and vendor personnel to access the route guide online. In many cases the shipment can be tendered directly to the carrier via the routeguide without the need to make a single phone call or even leave the website. Because the route guide is published online, customer requirements can be communicated and updated at minimal administrative cost. A further advantage of the online interface over a hard copy document is the ease and economy of changes in carrier selection.
