The Challenge
Carrier Dependence
A leading golf equipment manufacturer shipping from its Phoenix, AZ campus, relied heavily on a single parcel carrier. Rapid growth and transportation market volatility created cost and capacity risks, especially during seasonal demand surges.
With annual parcel spend exceeding $5.5 million, the company needed a strategy to diversify carriers without disrupting its primary FedEx agreement.
TransImpact’s Parcel Contract Negotiation solution introduced four additional carriers, allowing the company to dynamically shift parcel volume, stabilize costs, and improve operational flexibility. The result is a resilient parcel network better aligned with customer and retailer service expectations.
The Solution
Stabilized Costs & Services
To optimize parcel spend and reduce risk, TransImpact:
• Evaluated order service requirements, SLAs, and operational constraints
• Analyzed existing carrier contracts and identified network inefficiencies
• Conducted a parcel network study to assess consolidation opportunities
• Modeled multi-carrier options and verified eligibility for selected carriers
• Secured competitive pricing and established an optimal carrier mix
• Compared landed costs and transit times across carrier options
• Developed routing rules and provided spend intelligence for the primary carrier
• Supported IT and Operations in implementing multi-carrier shipping capabilities
The Results
Smart Logistics Network
This multi-carrier strategy enabled the company to dynamically shift parcel volume among four carriers while maintaining primary FedEx agreements. The result is a smarter, more adaptable logistics network with improved cost control and long-term resilience.
