The global healthcare technology leader leverages freight expediting to deliver or move goods and materials between facilities such as distribution centers and manufacturing plants. Expediting of freight generally results in higher shipment costs due to the change of freight method (ground, air, etc.) in addition to other factors.

Key Challenges

The global supply chain “control tower” was struggling with visibility into the expedite freight process. Some of the challenges they were facing were:

Calculating expedite freight request cost

Having a process to approve expedite freight requests

Understanding the impact to the bottom-line for expedite freight requests

Results

A standardized form and workflow process was put in place for approving and calculating expedite freight requests. This process provided the visibility and estimated cost to make intelligent business decisions resulting in millions of dollars saved to the bottom-line.
