Solistica lifts on-time deliveries by 20% with Oracle Cloud

Solistica, one of Latin America’s top third-party logistics companies, makes 1,900,000 deliveries each week to 4,000 customers in seven countries, using its fleet of 6,000 trucks.

As the company expands, it needs to keep up with some fundamental tasks such as connecting orders to transportation options, or figuring out how many pallets of goods could fit inside a truck. To keep deliveries on track, logistics managers often had to switch between multiple systems and rely on phone calls and emails to make time-sensitive decisions.

The leadership team looked to increase automation so workers could spend less time on low-value tasks, and more on improving delivery performance and customer service. The company wanted a better way to capture and analyze its operational data, and then bring that into decision making to help improve the business.  

By moving its logistics platform to Oracle Cloud, Solistica increased its on-time deliveries by 20% and improved its truck loading capabilities, resulting in a 3% to 5% increase in overall capacity to take more shipments.

With Oracle Transportation Management, Oracle Cloud ERP, and the combination of fuel savings and better asset utilization, Solistica has been able to reduce its transportation costs by 20% to 30%.
