Digital Transformation of the Parcel Ecosystem Case Study

Digital Transformation of the Parcel Ecosystem

Customer

As part of a digital transformation of the parcel ecosystem, a leading British multinational postal and courier company set out to modernize its end-to-end parcel operations. With only 20% of parcel traffic digitized, the organization faced poor visibility across deliveries, limited customer experience, and operational inefficiencies across sortation and last-mile networks. To compete with digital-first logistics providers, the client needed a fully digitized, real-time, and integrated parcel platform.

  • Achieve 100% digital capture of parcel events

  • Enable real-time in-flight delivery changes for customers

  • Improve customer onboarding, experience, and retention

  • Increase operational efficiency across sortation, routing, and delivery

  • Reduce incidents, delays, and manual interventions
