Case Study: C&S Wholesale Grocers achieves clear project visibility and faster prioritization with Daptiv

C&S Wholesale Grocers Uses the Express Lane to Better Project Portfolio Management

C&S Wholesale Grocers, a $20 billion, family‑owned wholesaler with more than 20,000 employees, faced growing complexity from rapid organic growth and acquisitions that overwhelmed its IT organization. The IT team lacked a unified project management approach—relying on disparate tools and no central help desk—so leaders couldn’t see what people were working on or track time, budgets and production changes effectively.

C&S selected Daptiv’s on‑demand PPM and implemented it in under eight weeks to centralize the project portfolio, enable time and resource tracking, and formalize change control. Within six weeks of going live they identified too many concurrent projects, reprioritized work based on concrete data, improved SOX compliance and production change processes, and gained the visibility needed to do more with fewer resources while expanding use of customized Daptiv applications.
