Converse to the company’s United States operating entity, CHEP Canada is responsible for paying the freight for 80 percent of all of its assets that are returning to their internal supply chain, 35 percent of issues to customers, and 100 percent of assets being transferred between plants. The previous process was manually managed through the use of spreadsheets generated from their ERP System. The company needed to properly complement their ERP System with an efficient TMS, while automating processes via BluJay’s Logistics as a Service (LaaS) team. CHEP Canada was also looking to gain enterprise visibility through standard KPI reporting formats and standardized general business practices. Leveraging BluJay's Logistics as a Service was seen as essential to keep moving the business forward to meet the marketplace’s ever-changing and dynamic demands.
