Methodology and sourcing behind the figures shown above.

Asset-based Third-party Logistics

Estimated U.S. asset-based 3PL market by applying Mordor Intelligence’s 2025 asset-light share (55.13%) — implying ~44.87% asset-based — to Armstrong & Associates’ U.S. 3PL 2025 total ($323.4B). Growth potential aligned to Mordor’s global 3PL CAGR (5.27% for 2026–2031), rounded to 5.3%. Armstrong’s dedicated contract carriage ($32.0B) was noted as a specific asset-based subsegment and used to validate scale.

Cross-border freight and customs clearance

Estimated North America (U.S./Canada/Mexico) cross-border freight & customs segment by applying the reported global cross-border logistics market size (USD 78.7B, 2024) to the cited North America share (43.65%), yielding ~USD 34.3B. Growth estimate (CAGR ~5.5%) is a midpoint reflection of reported global cross-border logistics CAGR (3.9%) and faster customs-brokerage-specific projections (≈6.4%), given the segment’s mix of transportation and customs services.

Just-in-Time and Sequenced Delivery

Search results provided definitions and use-cases for Just-in-Time and Just-in-Sequence (JIT/JIS) but contained no explicit market-size or CAGR figures. I estimated market size by treating JIS/JIT as a specialized segment of manufacturing logistics and 3PL value-added services (primarily automotive sequencing, kitting, line-side deliveries, and supporting software/services). Reasoning: global vehicle production (tens of millions of units annually) and other discrete-manufacturing volumes imply a per-unit sequencing/kitting/service value (order-of-magnitude $100–$400) that yields a multi‑billion-dollar addressable services market; adding related industries (electronics, appliances) and software/control‑tower services increases the total to roughly $20–30B. Growth potential (CAGR ~6.5%) reflects steady adoption driven by lean/Industry‑4.0 initiatives, supply‑chain digitalization, and continued emphasis on inventory reduction and sequence-aware deliveries, tempered by implementation complexity and supplier dependence. No searchResult contained explicit numeric market or growth data, so estimates are based on industry hierarchy and reasonable per‑unit/service assumptions.

Cross-docking and consolidation

Estimates vary by scope. Mordor Intelligence reports a broad cross-docking market of USD 250.92 billion in 2025 with a 4.2% CAGR (2025–2030) — used as the primary estimate for the overall market. Other sources show narrower service- or software-focused segments: Transparency Market Research projects ~US$342 billion by 2030 (~6% CAGR), Coherent Market Insights gives a smaller services estimate (USD 6.66B in 2026; CAGR 6.2%), and Future Market Insights reports the regional cross-dock optimization services niche at USD 0.94B in 2026 (CAGR 13.2%). These citations indicate divergence by definition; the chosen figure follows the broader market definition in Mordor’s report.

Freight brokerage

Primary estimate based on Global Market Insights reporting the freight brokerage market at USD 51.7 billion in 2023 with an estimated 6% CAGR (2024–2032). Mordor Intelligence reports similar mid-single-digit growth (6.9% CAGR) and higher 2025–2026 totals, which corroborates a mid-single-digit CAGR and supports the GMInsights 2023 size as a conservative baseline.
