Large Apparel Space Retailer - Customer Case Study

A large apparel retailer faced the challenge of optimizing its delivery network to compete with the "Amazon Effect" and achieve its goal of offering consistent two-day or next-day shipping nationwide. To address this, they partnered with Intelligent Audit, leveraging its suite of analytical tools to identify optimization opportunities.

Intelligent Audit's solution employed several strategies, including DC placement, zone skipping, omni-channel, and reverse logistics. The vendor's analysis identified a new distribution center in Colorado, which was key to decreasing the cost per shipment by 27%. This initiative achieved total weekly savings of $113,000 and successfully enabled one-to-two-day shipping across the country while also lowering overall costs.
