Case Study: Floyd achieves faster logistics and emissions reporting with Transfix TMS

Floyd Gains Visibility, Automation, and a Voice in Shaping Transfix TMS

Floyd, a direct-to-consumer furniture company, faced significant logistical challenges due to a lack of shipment visibility and highly manual processes. This lack of a central system made tracking shipments difficult, delayed delivery date information, and complicated carrier management. For their inbound logistics coordinator, simple tasks like scheduling and tendering a load took up to 30 minutes. Furthermore, their crucial initiative to manually collect emissions data for environmental reporting was an unreliable process that consumed three to four days.

To address this, Floyd implemented the Transfix TMS. The solution provided a central tool for visibility, allowing the team to track shipments and manage carriers efficiently. Transfix TMS automated key processes, slashing the time to tender a load from 30 minutes to just 5. Working directly with Transfix, Floyd also automated its emissions data collection, reducing that task from days to a mere 15 minutes. The partnership also allowed Floyd to help shape the TMS platform's development, ensuring it continued to meet their evolving needs.
