No Unified View Of Carrier Performance
Delivery times, damage rates and SLA results were tracked separately, making it hard to compare carriers on equal footing.
Carrier reliability, delivery times, damage rates and SLA compliance lived in separate spreadsheets and disconnected reports, making it hard to know which carriers were actually performing. We built a carrier performance dashboard MVP from scratch, giving procurement and operations teams one place to measure and compare carriers on the metrics that matter.
When carrier performance data is scattered, poor performers often go unnoticed until a customer complains or a shipment fails. Teams end up reacting to incidents rather than spotting the pattern that led to them.
This dashboard MVP gives procurement and operations teams a single, ongoing view of how each carrier is actually performing: on-time delivery, damage rates, cancellations, cost per shipment and SLA adherence, so underperformance is visible long before it becomes a crisis.
Delivery times, damage rates and SLA results were tracked separately, making it hard to compare carriers on equal footing.
Without consolidated metrics, carrier renewal and renegotiation conversations relied more on memory than measured performance.
There was no prior scorecard tool to build on, so the metric model and comparison views needed to be defined from zero.
A performance dashboard built around the metrics that decide which carriers earn more volume.
Each carrier gets a consolidated scorecard so teams can judge performance at a glance instead of digging through reports.
Delivery timeliness is tracked per carrier and lane, helping teams spot which routes are consistently at risk.
Damage and cancellation trends surface early, so teams can address a slipping carrier before it affects customers.
Cost data sits alongside reliability metrics, so cheaper carriers that cost more in failures are easy to identify.
SLA adherence is measured continuously, giving teams evidence for renewal, renegotiation or replacement conversations.
Carriers can be compared side by side on the same metrics, supporting fairer allocation and sourcing decisions.
We catalogued the reliability, cost and SLA metrics teams actually use when deciding which carriers to keep.
We designed a scorecard structure that could represent every carrier consistently, regardless of shipment volume.
A focused interface was designed around ranking, comparing and drilling into individual carrier performance.
Our engineers built the dashboard and the calculations behind each metric so scores stayed accurate and current.
The MVP launched to procurement and operations teams, with usage informing which metrics to deepen next.
A carrier scorecard only matters if it changes which carrier gets the next shipment.
A structured model represents each carrier's delivery, damage, cancellation and SLA data in one consistent shape.
Scores are calculated consistently across carriers, so comparisons reflect real performance differences, not data gaps.
Teams can move from a high-level scorecard down to lane-level or shipment-level detail behind any metric.
The MVP's architecture leaves room to add new metrics and automated alerts as procurement needs evolve.
× No consolidated carrier performance view
× Renewal decisions made without consistent data
× Underperformance often went unnoticed
× No dedicated product to build on
✓ MVP launched from a clean greenfield build
✓ Carriers compared on the same consistent metrics
✓ Reliability, damage and SLA data in one view
✓ Renewal conversations backed by evidence
Measure carriers on the same terms, every time.
This dashboard did not exist before this engagement — every metric, scorecard and comparison view was designed and built from zero around how procurement teams actually decide who keeps their business.
“A carrier relationship should be judged by data, not by whoever complained most recently. Build the scorecard first, and the renewal conversation becomes evidence-based instead of political.
