Emergency Rescue
The Client
A global leader in lubricants whose premiere brand is a household name. The client distributes to major retailers and independents across Canada.
The Challenge
To pick up the pieces and restore distribution services after the client’s logistics provider ceased operations and deliveries had been halted for two weeks.
The Solution
We devised and implemented an emergency rescue plan that saw after-hours Dominion personnel move the client’s entire inventory (over 100 truckloads) to our Toronto distribution centre over the course of a single weekend. The rescue included the mapping and integration of information systems and the training of customer service and operations personnel.
The Result
Within 72 hours of the move, the client’s customer order backlog of more than 200 shipments was current. Our client now enjoys dedicated Dominion services providing them with full-order management and a supply chain network for all of Canada.
