Enhancing logistics with a digital-first track-and-trace solution
As GlobalTranz grew rapidly through acquisitions, they needed a tracking system that could scale. We focused on building a simple, adaptable solution that met immediate needs and could grow over time. By combining industry expertise with user-focused design, we created a system that integrated smoothly with their existing transportation management platform. This approach improved efficiency and delivered a working solution three months ahead of schedule.
We assembled a cross-functional team of industry, design, technology, and change management experts to work alongside GlobalTranz's technologists and business leaders. Through intensive two-week sprints, we moved from vision and user research to technical architecture and development. This collaborative approach produced 18 scenario maps, four user personas, and three UX screens while identifying 268 future enhancements.
Our accelerated approach achieved what typically takes four to five months in just eight weeks. Beyond the 66% faster delivery, the project saved 1,200 hours of executive time and enabled value realization 12 weeks sooner than expected. More than just technology, this project fostered a new way of working—aligning business and tech teams for faster, more effective execution. With a foundation for continuous improvement, GlobalTranz is now equipped to scale efficiently, supporting future growth and acquisitions with confidence.
GlobalTranz, a leading tech-enabled logistics provider, faced mounting pressure to modernize their shipment tracking capabilities while managing rapid growth. The issue? Their existing systems couldn't keep pace with expanding operations and acquisitions. West Monroe partnered with GlobalTranz to design and deliver a new digital-first tracking system in just eight weeks—66% faster than traditional approaches. This collaborative effort delivered immediate value by focusing on a simple, scalable solution that ultimately saved 1,200 executive hours and sped up results by 12 weeks.
