SYSTEM IMPROVEMENT
The problem to solve
A defining difference between XPO Logistics and its competitors is its tech-savvy approach to logistics – but it wasn’t always that way.
In 2011 XPO realized the systems they had in place lacked efficiency and involved many manual procedures, which slowed the process and reduced accuracy.
In order to remain competitive, they needed to refine their current processes, improve their systems, and lower their costs.
They approached Tiburon Data to find a solution to modernize the order process and increase efficiency.
