Transportation consulting for US carriers, fleets, and rental operators.
CSMG works alongside US transportation operators — on the dispatch desk, at the deal table, and inside the P&L — to fix what's slowing growth. Dispatch, sales, pricing, and branch performance, run by senior partners with twenty-plus years in the seat.
Where we move the needle.
US transportation is a margin business. Fuel, labor, equipment, and insurance squeeze the P&L from every direction, and the operators winning right now aren't the ones with the slickest tech — they're the ones with disciplined dispatch, an honest sales pipeline, and pricing that actually reflects cost-to-serve.
We engage in the work. Ride-alongs with dispatchers. Sit-ins on sales calls. Line-by-line reviews of the rate matrix. The output isn't a 90-slide deck — it's a small number of operating changes the team will actually run on Monday.
Engagements are led by a senior partner end-to-end. No junior handoff, no offshore analyst pool.
