A 3G Case Study
Fort Garry Industries is Canada’s truck and trailer parts, sales, and service provider, with 21 locations across six provinces. Before using 3G’s Descartes Pacejet Shipping, the company was slowed by shipment creation times of roughly 20 seconds, manual label printing, Bill of Lading preparation, and other paperwork, which made it difficult to keep up with a target of 60 shipments per hour.
With 3G’s Descartes Pacejet Shipping, Fort Garry reduced shipment creation to as little as 10 seconds and automated shipping paperwork, cutting shipment processing time by more than 50%. 3G also developed the Contract Rates Module so Fort Garry could load contracted rates for non-API carriers and rate shop across all carriers, improving accuracy, reducing manual work, and helping the company meet pickup times with less overtime.
