Challenge 1: Tracking visibility and customer frustration

PackNWood faced significant challenges with tracking visibility due to its use of multiple carriers for shipping. Initial shipments were handled by one carrier while another carrier managed last-mile delivery. This multi-carrier approach, coupled with a communication gap after order placement, created a frustrating customer experience. Customers were left uninformed about the status of their packages and often unclear about the specific items being shipped, leading to a high number of WISMO inquiries and increased frustration.

Since integrating LateShipment.com, we’ve significantly reduced the number of tracking and order status inquiries. Customers now receive detailed, step-by-step updates automatically, eliminating the need for them to contact us for order statuses. This seamless communication has improved efficiency and enhanced customer satisfaction.

Challenge 2: Unclaimed refunds for Shipping delays

PackNWood’s shipping carrier performance analysis by LateShipment.com, revealed that FedEx had an 18% delay rate and UPS had a 9% delay rate. Despite these delays, PackNWood was losing money by not filing claims for compensation. Additionally, there were limitations with time and manpower to manage carrier invoice audits, file billing disputes, and claims on lost, damaged, and late shipments.

LateShipment.com has helped us automate shipping refunds for service failures by UPS through and through. There is also better visibility and transparency with what’s happening in our shipping operations.
