Case Study: MTD Products achieves 12% lower freight costs and seamless supply chain visibility with BluJay Solutions

MTD Increases Functionality, Visibility, and Collaboration with BluJay Solutions

MTD Products Inc., a global leader in outdoor power equipment founded in 1932, operates facilities across North America, Europe, China and Australia and ships thousands of inbound and outbound containers each year. The company struggled with limited shipment visibility, many manual processes, weak supplier collaboration and a lack of actionable metrics, so it sought a Transportation Management System to automate operations and provide real‑time data for better decision making.

MTD selected BluJay Solutions’ SaaS Transportation Management platform to centralize inbound, interplant and outbound processes and give suppliers portal access. The implementation improved end‑to‑end visibility and collaboration, cut freight costs by 12%, boosted productivity by 20% with the same staff, reduced dock transactions by 30%, and lowered LTL shipments from 33% to 25%, resulting in more efficient, optimized transportation.
