Case Study: Customized Distribution Services improves inbound receiving and cuts dwell time with Veryable

Customized Distribution Services boosts inbound receiving 36% with Veryable

Customized Distribution Services (CDS), a third-party logistics provider, was struggling with a backlog of over 100 trailers and labor shortages at its Edwardsville distribution center. Facing costly overtime and an inability to scale, CDS turned to the vendor Veryable and its on-demand labor platform to find a solution.

By using Veryable, CDS quickly built a flexible labor pool that could scale up or down with demand. This approach allowed them to increase their on-time inbound receiving rate from 44.3% to 80% and reduce excessive driver dwell time incidents by 38%. Veryable provided the agility CDS needed to manage volatile workloads efficiently without resorting to layoffs during quieter periods.
