244: Transform Your Business Performance with TransImpact

Today I'm joined by TransImpact, a game-changing logistics tech company that is transforming business performance through industry-leading technology, relentless customer service, and future-focused knowledge. TransImpact is an industry leader in the development and application of end-to-end technology-based solutions that optimize shipping operations, create dramatic supply chain efficiencies and transform the business performance of customers. Today Berkley Stafford, CEO at TransImpact, joins me to chat all about the company: what they do; the importance of integrating technology into logistics; and the key challenges and trends, from data to shipping, happening in the industry right now.   IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:   [06.52] An introduction to TransImpact – what they do, and how they help their customers – and a look at how and why the company was founded. "… we can analyze, help you identify efficiencies and ultimately improve your margins – we stay away from soft costs, let's get right into the hard costs, and what's in your bank account!" [09.45] A closer look at TransImpact's parcel solutions. "Parcel is such a dynamic industry right now, and extremely volatile." [14.33] TransImpact's unbiased 'behind the scenes' approach. "Our technology and expertise has nothing to do with influencing you... We don't care if you want to use UPS or Fedex – the savings are on the table, regardless of the carrier you use." [16.27] Current industry challenges: what TransImpact has seen, and how their business has pivoted to support their customers. "Now, we're taking a different approach – we're not only saving customers money, we're giving them an entirely different opportunity to alleviate capacity concerns." [20.14] Why complexity leads to opportunity. [22.27] Why the industry has, on the whole, been slow to embrace new technologies and digitization. [25.48] A closer look at the integration of TransImpact solutions. [27.45] Data and visibility: the challenges, and how TransImpact can help. "You wouldn't believe the left hand not knowing what the right hand knows, and how disconnected they are – and you wouldn't believe the amount of data customers don't actually have, because it's dirty." [32.02] The ideal customer for TransImpact. [34.29] Case studies: how TransImpact helped two key customers. [41.49] The future for TransImpact, and for the logistics industry.   RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED:   Head over to TransImpact's website now to find out more and discover how they could help you too.
