March 21 2016 - 8:53AM
Holland has been honored by the Vehicle Service Group (VSG) with
two of its 2015 Carrier of the Year awards. For the third
consecutive year, Holland was named LTL Carrier of the Year by VSG.
Holland was also selected as its first ever Overall Carrier of the
Year for 2015. Introduced this year, the Overall Carrier of the
Year award is given to the best overall carrier across all service
categories: TL, LTL, flatbed and ocean. To determine award winners,
VSG evaluates its carriers across four critical performance
metrics, including on-time pickup and delivery, administrative
capabilities and safety.

“Nothing means more to Holland than the satisfaction of our
customers,” said Scott Ware, President of Holland. “Statistics and
figures are necessary, but the bottom line is whether or not those
numbers equate to quality service for our customers. These awards
from VSG serve as affirmation that Holland has made good on its
promise of unmatched LTL performance. They also stand as a
testament to the hard work and dedication of our world-class
employees. It is through their commitment to excellence that we are
able to win these awards year after year. We thank each and every
Holland employee for the superior customer service put forth every
day. We would also like to thank the Vehicle Service Group for this
honor. We look forward to providing VSG with many more years of
award-winning service.”
Brian Corbett, Holland Director of Corporate Sales, and Joanne
Carr, Corporate Account Executive, accepted the awards on behalf of
Holland at the 2015 Vehicle Service Group awards banquet, held
recently in Madison, Ind. VSG President Niclas Ytterdahl, Vice
President Matt Webster and other VSG officers presented the awards
to Corbett and Carr. Award winners were selected using a scorecard
system that evaluates carriers across four service metrics:
- Operational Performance: On-time pickup, on-time delivery,
corrective actions
- EDI/Financial: Tenders sent via 204, 214 updates and invoice
accuracy
- Claim-free loads, average days open and recovery
percentage
- Safety and Responsibility: SmartWay partnership and FMCSA
compliance, safety, accountability (CSA) scores
