Managing the distribution supply chain through seasonal peaks and establishing a disaster recovery capability.  Given the round-the-clock nature of internet retail and fulfilment, our client needed a customer-focused, flexible, supplier that adapted its processes and systems to their needs.  They wanted a supplier who needed to scale-up and down through seasonal peaks, incorporate our client’s technology within its operation and work seamlessly with the client’s time.
