Case Study: Wincanton achieves digital training transformation, compliance and cost savings with Absorb LMS

Wincanton chooses Absorb as the foundation for new digital training platform

Wincanton, a leading U.K. logistics and supply chain provider with over 160 sites and 20,000 employees, faced inefficient, paper-based training that was time-consuming, hard to audit, and unable to scale or keep pace with fast-changing regulatory and operational needs. The legacy approach also created GDPR and compliance challenges and limited the company’s ability to quickly update skills across its workforce.

Wincanton deployed Absorb’s digital learning platform (“MyLearning”)—including Absorb LMS, Engage and Analyze—with an eight-week rollout and pilot phase, eSignatures, and integrations to HR systems. The solution automated assignment and tracking, improved reporting and audit trails, and reduced paper use, delivering faster administration and cost savings. Early results include roughly 1,125 additional learners in year one, a 63% increase in available courses, a 36% rise in compliance completions and a 19% boost in learner access.
