Logistics Maturity Checklist for Companies: interactive table to evaluate processes and make decisions

Table of the logistics maturity checklist that helps companies evaluate processes and make strategic decisions.

Why measure your logistics maturity?

Companies that assess their logistics level can scale operations smoothly, reduce costs, and improve customer experience.

Without a prior assessment, any attempt at optimization or outsourcing can be costly and inefficient.

Benefit of evaluating logistics maturity: anticipate problems, standardize processes, and free up resources for strategic tasks.

Logistics Maturity Checklist

Evaluate your operation in two key dimensions: Operational and Strategic/Resources. Answer “Yes” or “No” to each question to identify your current level.

Operational Dimension

Strategic and Resource Dimension

Xternus Tip: Before outsourcing, ensure processes are clear and metrics are defined. This allows you to scale without losing control or quality.

Interpretation of Results

“Yes” Results Level What it means Next steps
0-2 Initial Your operation is sustainable but each new incident requires a great effort. Map processes, standardize tasks, and create indicators to anticipate problems.
3-5 Intermediate Bottlenecks affect deadlines and the team is overloaded. Partial outsourcing in critical areas and flexible talent to regain efficiency.
6-8 Advanced Operational overload impacts costs, customer service, and team satisfaction. Design a comprehensive outsourcing model with clear metrics to scale safely.

Recommendations and Next Steps

Outsourcing is not losing control; it is gaining focus and competitiveness. At Xternus, we design a tailored model that evolves with you:
