Why Create MPOC, The Memphis Pool of Choice

In 2019 The Memphis Supply Chain Innovation Team led by FMC Commissioner Dye, which included Memphis market participants, concluded that all chassis in the Memphis region needed to be interoperable. Dave Manning’s vision of Modern Chassis specs, adequate chassis supply, and pricing transparency is ideal for managing the multi-contributor interoperable Memphis Pool of Choice, MPOC.

Qualities of an Efficient Market Competitive Pool

Users can choose the provider who will invoice them based on service, interchange terms, and price. Modern Premium chassis equipped with GPS, Radial tires, LED lights, ABS, and some with an Auto-Inflation-System will be available when and where they are needed. Pool rules assign use for both MH (Merchant Haulage) and CH (Carrier Haulage) moves. CH and MHE (Merchant Haulage Exception) will be billed by the ocean carriers’ nominated chassis provider. Simplified; any CH or MHE (Merchant Haulage Exception) where an MPOC chassis is used, billing will go to the user, who may not be reimbursed by the ultimate owner of the move. If the Provider of the ocean carrier’s container is not an MPOC pool contributor, use will default to the Provider who contributed the chassis to the pool.

How Will MPOC Operate

MPOC will be an interoperable pool open to all contributors. Pool rules will assign use for both MH (Merchant Haulage) and CH (Carrier Haulage) moves. With CHOICE, users can select the chassis provider who will invoice them based on service, interchange terms, and price. CH and MHE (Merchant Haulage Exception) will be billed by the chassis provider nominated by the ocean carrier.
