The potential of horizontal cooperation has been discussed for more than thirty years in management literature. In one case study, the cooperation potential is shown by analysing the price reduction through transport bundling in general cargo delivery through consignment compression. This is achieved via a delay of the delivery date by the cooperation partners. However, this potential can only be reached when the customers of the food manufactures, in this case retailers, accept a short delivery delay. In this case it is shown that there is enough time puffer to bundle the spare part transportation with the help of consignment compression. This study also shows that the price potential is not fully reached due to miscalculation which is caused by an inaccurate price matrix. Therefore, the calculated prices do not reflect the actual transport costs. As a result, solutions to these problems are provided to optimize the potential of horizontal cooperation.
