Ridgeway Distribution clears the fog across 60 depots

Dean Whitlock, Network Operations Director at Ridgeway Distribution, describes how the UK parcel and pallet business replaced a fragmented, reactive planning model across 60 depots with a single, demand-driven view of the entire network. By adopting Northpeak Crew, Pulse, and Onsite, Ridgeway cut agency labour from 18% of its depot wage bill to under 11% in a single quarter, pushed trunk on-time departures to 99%, and saved over a million pounds a year - while freeing Dean to run operations rather than chase yesterday's fires.
