Case Study: Datto achieves $532,915 in agreement savings and optimized logistics with Sifted

Datto Dusted Off the Negotiation Playbook to Save over $500,000

Datto, the world’s leading provider of MSP-delivered IT solutions, faced manual, time-consuming reporting from FedEx and UPS and needed to meet growing two-day delivery expectations while evaluating distribution center strategy and true carrier savings. To address these challenges they engaged Sifted, using Sifted’s Parcel Audit and Logistics Intelligence tools to gain better visibility into carrier delivery and accessorial details and to monitor spend and earned discount tiers.

Sifted delivered a Network Optimization analysis and LI Pro (Logistics Engineering) support — Sifted’s data scientists and parcel experts analyzed Datto’s UPS agreement, compared cost per package to transit time across scenarios, and guided negotiations. The outcome: $532,915 in total agreement savings, $70,000 in shipping discrepancies identified, improved operational visibility and carrier accountability, and a stronger UPS relationship with regular bi-weekly reviews — all enabled by Sifted.
