Nynas | Oil, Gas and Chemicals | 687 | $566M | Sweden | Descartes Systems | Descartes Transportation Manager | Transportation Management | 2024 | n/a | In 2024, Nynas implemented Descartes Transportation Manager, a cloud-based Transportation Management solution from Descartes Systems to automate communication across the customer order lifecycle. The deployment is cloud-hosted and scoped to support Nynas shipments across Europe, providing a centralized platform for transportation operations and order orchestration. The implementation leverages Descartes Transportation Manager as a single entry point for customer order data, with functional capabilities for managing orders through the shipping process, including changes to pick-up dates, product types, and product quantities. The solution automates communications with external parties and reduces manual handoffs, building on Nynas use of Descartes customs filing functionality to simplify compliance workflows. Integrations are oriented to external logistics endpoints, the system communicates directly with carriers, freight forwarders, customs agents, independent inspectors and Nynas main storage hub, and it synchronizes data with the systems of outside partners to replace email, phone and PDF based exchanges. The cloud-based architecture centralizes transaction and status data, enabling supply chain and transportation teams to operate from a unified transportation operations layer. Operational coverage spans transportation, logistics, customer service and compliance functions, and the rollout focused on automating communications and data quality controls to reduce manual tasks. As reported by Nynas, the deployment produced an immediate 20% reduction in order revisions and provided customers with an easy to access overview of order details and shipment status, reflecting improved data quality and synchronized partner communications. | |

Colt | Communications | 688 | $336M | United Kingdom | Oracle | Oracle Communications Order and Service Management | Order Management | 2008 | n/a | In 2008, Colt implemented Oracle Communications Order and Service Management as a core component of Oracle’s Rapid Offer Design and Order Delivery solution. The initiative focused on Order Management to automate provisioning for combined cloud and network services and to provide full order lifecycle visibility for enterprise customers. The implementation concentrated on automated provisioning and orchestration of IT and network elements, enabling single order processing across service and network domains. Oracle Consulting delivered the implementation within six months, configuring the solution to support order capture, fulfillment orchestration, service activation workflows and SLA monitoring tied to cloud service offerings. Integrations were explicitly implemented with Oracle Siebel CRM, Oracle Product Hub for Communications and Oracle Application Integration Architecture for Communications to create a unified order to service flow. The deployment leveraged Colt’s 19 data centers and fiber networks connecting 38 major European cities to enable rapid delivery of cloud services alongside network transport. Process and governance changes emphasized end to end lifecycle visibility and automated service delivery, simplifying the packaging of IT and network elements into complex cloud services. Reported outcomes included an improved user experience, full order lifecycle visibility and support for enterprise grade service level agreements, with automated processes reducing delivery timeframes from weeks to hours as stated. | |
