The challenge
Temperature-sensitive shipments moved through 60+ corridors across 12 countries — but disruption intelligence arrived by email digest, often after a truck was already stuck at a blocked border or a port strike had begun.
"Every hour of delay on a cold-chain shipment is measured in lost product. We needed to know before the disruption, not after."
The solution
The company modelled its logistics network in Datasurfr — one platform for corridor monitoring, exposure scoring, and response. Predictive advisories now flag strikes, weather systems, and unrest building along active routes, and what-if simulations let planners test alternate routings before committing.
The outcome
- 48-hour average early warning on corridor disruptions, up from near-zero.
- Cold-chain incident rate down 35% within two quarters.
- BCP and security teams now work from the same live picture — no more reconciling separate reports.
