Freight Transport Forum
Chairman: Nigel Kirkwood
Your Institute is introducing some changes, making us more open and relevant to you, whichever sector of logistics or transport you work in.
We are replacing the four Faculties with eight Professional Sectors. These Professional Sectors will provide specialist activity for a particular area of interest whilst continuing to offer opportunity and involvement across the profession.
What you need to do...
We are now asking all members to update their details and tell us which Professional Sectors and Forums they want to belong to as soon as possible. You can do this in a number of ways - online through ‘My Membership', complete the Member Selection form that you will shortly receive in Focus, or complete the form included on the Current Awareness Bulletin over the next few weeks.
Please note, you can now belong to as many Professional Sectors and Forums as you wish.
Should you wish to make your selections online, please remember that you will need to create your password to login if you have not already done so. A short guide to making your selection online is available here.

Freight Transport Forum
Freight transport is the essential ingredient in successful supply chain operations, because without efficient transport links, nothing moves.In 2005 it was decided that this Forum will primarily concentrate on freight by road, especially the legal and technical implications. A one day seminar was held in London during April 2006, at which delegates were giving a detailed briefing on digital tachographs by an industry expert.
Regardless of the topic: new transport legislation, the effects of employment and health and safety issues on transport operations, vital issues of fleet management, the technicalities of the latest vehicles and equipment, the economics of freighting by whatever mode, the aim is the same: to collate and analyse a wide spectrum of views and opinions and then make them available to the membership.
