Case Study: Overcoming the Inability to Match Amazon’s Speed, Leading to Reduced Sales The supplier struggled to meet rising consumer expectations for fast shipping, especially as competitors leveraging Amazon’s logistics network offered next-day delivery. Standard LTL and parcel routes resulted in slow transit times, leading to lost sales and reduced retailer trust. Warp’s Solution - Cross-Dock Network Optimization: Warp implemented a zone-skipping approach by consolidating POs into full truckloads and shipping them directly to strategically located cross-docks near high-demand regions. - Dedicated Final-Mile Distribution: Instead of waiting for traditional parcel networks, Warp deployed local box trucks and cargo vans to complete last-mile deliveries within 24-48 hours. - Dynamic Routing for Speed: Warp used real-time data to optimize routes, ensuring that shipments bypassed congestion-heavy distribution centers and reached stores faster. Results ? 40% Faster Deliveries – Shipping times were reduced from 5-7 days to just 2-3 days. ? 15% Increase in Sales – Improved speed and reliability led to higher order volumes and retailer confidence. ? Competitive Advantage – The supplier could now compete with Amazon’s fulfillment speed without relying on its network. #supplychain #logistics #transportation #zoneskipping
