I work for a global 3PL and since the CNH merger many problems have been experienced. For yrs. we have operated serveral DCs and depots for Case both domestically and abroad. The CNH merger has forced a great deal of consolidation that has really reduced the previous shrinking US market to an even smaller footprint. NH has a different business philosophy than CASE yet CASE had to succumb to the purchase in order to survive. NH being owned by FIAT has no allegiance to America and their business philosophy is structured to be a global provider. Being employed as a global supply chain provider gives me unique insight to the CNH woes and upside. I hope that something beneficial comes to fruition but with global consolidation I see more "internal churning" as the two companies try reinvent themselves as a global provider. Additionally, I see much more market place consolidation forthcoming and only those with really DEEP pockets will survive. The others will be forced to sell off more and more assets, intellectual rights, etc. in an effort to remain competitive until such a point that nothing is left to sell. At that point, those with the DEEP pockets will buy the rights, designs etc. pick it over selecting only the creme de'la creme, repaint, remarket and throw out the residual balance as an old corn husk. New company emergence will be coming as a result of global consolidation and outsourcing. The same is happening with our food supply as we provide services for ADM, Con-Agra etc. I am NOT impressed by what I see :( FWIW! ShepFL

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
