Impact #2	The company was able to provide better insights and less general information to their clients. They were able to give their clients actionable advice they’d never have access to before.
Impact #3	Odyssey was able to map their active shipments, giving their client teams visibility to shipping patterns in real time. They now have insights into where coverage problems might exist.
