Case Study: Do it Best improves transportation visibility and efficiency with Redwood Logistics and MercuryGate TMS

Redwood Builds Better Transportation Results For Do It Best

Based in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Do it Best, a nearly $5 billion member-owned hardware cooperative, faced the challenge of managing its complex transportation operations with error-prone manual processes. They needed real-time visibility into shipments and better carrier compliance to maintain smooth and profitable logistics. Redwood Logistics identified the MercuryGate transportation management system (TMS) as the solution to these unique challenges.

Redwood Logistics implemented MercuryGate TMS, which automated daily processes to provide real-time visibility and data-driven decision-making. The results were significant: routing loads was reduced from over a week to a single day, and freight payment processing was automated, cutting payment terms from net 30 to net 15 days. This solution dramatically reduced manual effort, eliminated errors, and drove out costs for Do it Best.
