Schneider National Inc Company Profile

We believe we have developed a differentiated business model that is difficult to replicate due to our scale, breadth of complementary service offerings, and proprietary technology platform. Our highly flexible and balanced business combines asset-based truckload services with asset-light intermodal and non-asset logistics offerings, enabling us to serve our customers’ diverse transportation needs. We believe we have become an iconic and trusted brand within the transportation industry by adhering to a culture of safety “first and always” and upholding our responsibility to our customers, our associates, and the communities that we serve.

Truckload – which consists of freight transported and delivered with standard and specialty equipment by our company-employed drivers in company trucks and by owner-operators. These services are executed through either for-hire or dedicated contracts. Our truckload services include standard long-haul and regional shipping services primarily using dry van equipment, and bulk, temperature-controlled, First to Final Mile “white glove” delivery, and customized solutions for high-value and time-sensitive loads. With our acquisition of WSL, we established a national footprint and expertise in shipping large parcel consumer items, such as furniture, mattresses, and other household goods.

Intermodal – which consists of door-to-door container on flat car service by a combination of rail and over-the-road transportation, in association with our rail carrier partners. Our intermodal service offers vast coverage throughout North America, including cross-border freight through company containers, chassis, and trucks.

Logistics – which consists of non-asset freight brokerage services, supply chain services (including 3PL), and import/export services. Our logistics business typically provides value-added services using third-party capacity, augmented by our assets, to manage and move our customers’ freight.

In addition, we engage in equipment leasing to third parties through our wholly owned subsidiary Schneider Finance, Inc., which is primarily engaged in leasing trucks to owner-operators, including owner-operators with whom we contract. We also provide insurance for both the company and owner-operators through our wholly owned insurance subsidiary. Finally, we conduct limited China-based trucking operations consisting primarily of brokerage services.

We have established a network of facilities across North America in order to maximize the geographic reach of our company trucks and owner-operators and provide maintenance services and personal amenities for our drivers. Our portfolio diversity, network density throughout North America, and large fleet allow us to provide an exceptional level of service to our customers and consistently excel as a reliable partner, especially at times of peak demand. Our early investment and adoption of next generation technology and data analytics is a competitive advantage. Our custom quote-to-cash Quest platform leverages proprietary decision science algorithms and real-time data analytics to optimize network density and equipment use across our entire network. This state-of-the-art platform allows us to make informed decisions at every level of our business and was built utilizing technology from Oracle Corporation.
