I want to receive updates regarding this question via email.

Transportation knowledge and metrics

Hi,

In dealing with Transportation cases, specifically the public ones, what sources/knowledge metrics that we'd want to look at ? 

What are the major revenue streams? What specific buckets in the mix we'd like to consider?

Best,

Hi,

The best resources will be:

  1. Annual reports of the transportation companies (select the top ones)
  2. Monographies (e.g. https://www.amazon.com/Transportation-Global-Supply-Chain-Perspective/dp/1133592961/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1524519506&sr=8-2&keywords=transportation)
  3. HBS cases about these industries

Best!
