Case Study: LEGACY Supply Chain Services achieves 70% faster customer onboarding and 50% lower operating costs with Microsoft Azure

Logistics company transforms customer service, reduces costs by 50 percent with move to the cloud

LEGACY Supply Chain Services is a North American third‑party warehousing, distribution, transportation, and logistics provider that was burdened by complex, costly EDI processes. IT teams spent excessive time configuring and supporting 16 on‑premises EDI solutions to move data between customers’ ERPs and its WMS, slowing customer onboarding and forcing higher service charges.

Working with VNB Consulting, LEGACY replaced its on‑premises stack with Microsoft Azure Logic Apps (and related Azure services), automating B2B workflows and adding mobile-triggered EDI for drivers. The cloud approach cut technology operating costs by 50%, sped customer onboarding by 70%, reduced transaction mapping and implementation costs by 80–90%, accelerated EDI deployments by 75%, and enabled much faster WMS customer setups (from 16 weeks and $140,000 to two hours and ~$1,600/month), while improving visibility, compliance, and scalability across its network.
