J Armand Bombardier founded the company
in 1942 to manufacture vehicles that could
cover snowbound terrain in Canada.
The company was then known as L’Auto-
Neige Bombardier Limited. Today the
company is just called Bombardier, its shares
trade on the Toronto and NY stock exchanges
and its revenues were US $14billion at the
end of January 2007. Today they’re global
leaders in the manufacture of rail equipment
which includes passenger and freight cars as
well as locomotive engines. They also employ
over 29,000 staff worldwide.

‘We found that 3t provided an innovative
solution, offering specialised haulier
management but without the burden of its own
assets. The expertise and experience of the 3t
team is invaluable, and we are confident that
we can rely heavily on them to deliver results -
both now and in the future.
As a 4PL, 3t Logistics is ideally placed to offer
Bombardier Transportation a totally unbiased
solution that optimises its transport
management. 3t acts as a single point of
contact for all aspects of freight management
including re-engineering, carrier contracts,
operations management, freight billing, carrier
invoice auditing and payment, freight activity
reporting and carrier performance monitoring.’
