Accelerated Inc | Distribution | 40 | $5M | United States | Flexport | Flexport Platform | Real-Time Transportation Visibility | 2018 | n/a | In 2018 Accelerated Inc implemented the Flexport Platform to deliver Real-Time Transportation Visibility across its distribution network. The deployment targeted operational control over imports, drayage, container drops and air shipments, extending visibility and coordination across 18 of 38 Accelerated terminals and seven company CFS locations, and supporting corporate international shipment processing and customer support functions. The Flexport Platform configuration focused on electronic booking workflows for the EXW team, real-time shipment tracking and visibility dashboards, billing and auditing workflows, and customs compliance orchestration for air and ocean imports. Functional capabilities implemented included booking to settlement workflows, container drop and drayage orchestration, manifest and documentation processing, and visibility for IB linehaul and General Order freight, with the Flexport Platform used to coordinate regulatory interactions with CBP, FDA and TSA. Operational integrations and operational tooling explicitly aligned with existing systems and processes, with the Flexport Platform used alongside Kermit/Datatrac, Ex Works booking processes, and Microsoft Excel, Word, Teams and Outlook for auditing, reporting and team collaboration. Governance and process changes centralized escalation handling under the Corporate and International Manager role, established role based workflows and backup procedures across five subdepartments, and embedded audit and billing controls for regular reporting to the Sales VP and company President. | |

ARES Tool | Retail | 60 | $6M | United States | Flexport | Flexport Platform | Real-Time Transportation Visibility | 2019 | n/a | In 2019, ARES Tool deployed the Flexport Platform for Real-Time Transportation Visibility. The engagement ran remotely from February 2019 to April 2019 and targeted shipment orchestration and inbound inventory coordination for the U.S.-based retail company. The implementation emphasized integration of real-time shipment tracking and event visibility from the Flexport Platform with transaction and inventory workflows authored in NetSuite. Purchase orders were generated in NetSuite and distributed to multiple vendors across the world, while shipments and inventory status were actively managed across NetSuite, Amazon Seller Central and the Flexport Platform. Operational tasks implemented included receipt of incoming items into Seller Central and NetSuite, transfer routing to the correct Amazon fulfillment locations, clerical verification of physical stock against system counts, and structured discrepancy research for payment, inventory, and shipment variances. Governance centered on coordinated workflows that linked PO orchestration in NetSuite to shipment visibility streams in the Flexport Platform and fulfillment state in Seller Central, enabling a single operational view for inbound logistics. The deployment also supported concurrent Seller Central campaign management and audit activities, including daily campaign budgeting and weekly PPC reporting, which delivered an explicit outcome of reducing ACOS from 40% to 25% over two months. The implementation scope covered procurement to inbound receipt across multiple global vendors and established repeatable reconciliation and audit processes for inventory and shipment exceptions. | |
