Case Study: PostNL transforms logistics and workforce management with Mendix low-code

PostNL delivers 109 apps and cuts driver data latency by 90% with Mendix

PostNL, a major logistics company in the Benelux region, faced the challenge of adapting to the rapid growth of eCommerce and evolving customer demands for more control and transparency. To keep pace with change, software became its most important strategic asset, and it needed a way to manage a high volume of requests while maintaining compliance, security, and governance. The company adopted the Mendix low-code platform in 2015 to address these needs.

Using Mendix, PostNL developed 109 applications that modernized its core processes. Key solutions included a mission-critical order management system, a real-time driver performance app, and a custom workforce management platform. The results were significant, including processing 10 million transactions and 1.3 million parcels daily, a 90% reduction in data latency, and the delivery of major applications in months instead of years. Mendix provided the foundation for PostNL's enterprise transformation.
