Over the years, a global market leader in the development, production and sale of fastening and assembly materials had deployed a variety of technology solutions to help run their supply chain. With a large, complex supply chain that included well over 100 facilities and a global supply and customer base, the technologies failed to support their business needs and they were struggling with supply chain inefficiencies and customer satisfaction. With a new, modern intelligence platform from LogiFlow, the wholesaler eliminated five underperforming technology platforms.

The Challenge

Faced with a multitude of supply chain problems and continual new challenges, a major diversified shipper knew they had to do something different. With three different market leading TMS platforms and an international management system in place, and a global trade management software solution being built, it seemed like they should have the necessary firepower to solve all supply chain problems. However, despite their resources and technological capabilities, the shipper continued to struggle with gaps in functionality that created operational inefficiencies, higher costs, and problems with customer satisfaction.

The Objective

After assessing the existing technologies and fully understanding the operational nuances, the LogiFlow development team went to work. Using their unique knowledge and experience of supply chain and technology, the LogiFlow team needed to design and develop a solution that would replace five separate technology systems. The single platform would integrate the end-to-end process, while also capturing and providing valuable business intelligence.
