The client is an American global contract logistics company that manages outsourced supply chains, warehousing, and reverse logistics for blue-chip customers in over thirty countries.
At the beginning of the engagement, the client understood that modernizing their data strategy, tooling, and architecture would be critical to their success, and to fostering a culture of innovation across their many warehouses and our deployments.
Eight months into deploying a modern data platform based on Snowflake, the client was looking for a strategic partner that understood the modern data stack and could augment their capabilities while understanding the challenges and opportunities of their business.
Over 3 months, Hakkoda drafted and delivered an executable vision and business case to develop a shareable and accessible platform that augmented the client’s capabilities while minimizing complexity.
Hakkoda then worked closely with internal data teams to recommend, design, and implement a modern data platform capable of ingesting cloud-based systems at scale and in close to real time.
With a Snowflake-based data platform and strategy in place, the client’s leadership is empowered to leverage data as an asset and provide insight to their customers across the global supply chain—consuming telemetry data for route optimization, to give one example. The strategies and tooling in place also lay the foundations for AI and ML products.
