A New Approach to eCommerce Fulfillment
Traditionally, businesses might award their middle-mile and FTL transportation to four or five large carriers.
However, eCommerce presents a unique challenge. With its unpredictable nature, faster delivery expectations, varying dims and weights, dynamic fulfillment requirements, and increasingly high consumer expectations, taking a traditional approach no longer works. It only follows that the way you’ve been handling transportation procurement in the past won’t cut it either across today’s eCommerce landscape.
The alternate, modern approach is to work with an aggregated solution with established courier and carrier relationships. One whose rates are locked in, and whose easy implementation gets you up and running very quickly.
A true omnichannel solution will allow you to fulfill from store; offer same-day and next-day delivery; scale your fleet on demand; streamline and automate business operations; even a 24/7 Exceptions Assist™ team to watch over every truck and delivery for delays that could affect your SLAs (things like traffic and weather, etc.).
Essentially, one that will expand your delivery capabilities so you can offer everything that leads to higher customer satisfaction, an increased Likely to Recommend score and increased revenue.
