WEST CHESTER, Pa., June 27, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A. Duie Pyle (Pyle), the premier 98-year-old provider of asset and non-asset-based supply chain solutions, today announces it has been named one of the 2022 Top Supply Chain Projects of the Year by Supply and Demand Chain Executive. This award spotlights successful and innovative transformation projects that deliver bottom-line value to small, medium and large enterprises across a range of supply chain functions.
Pyle was recognized for partnering with one of the United States' largest independent distributors of building materials to improve its overall distribution services in the Northeast. In a two-phase project, Pyle and the client worked together to improve delivery operations and boost customer satisfaction by converting the client's private fleet into a managed dedicated fleet. As a result, Pyle was able to help stabilize the customer's driver turnover rate, lower operational costs and increase overall customer approval.
Within six months, Pyle revamped the customer's fleet and created organizational tactics and strategies to help the customer improve overall efficiencies. Pyle's operating team also raised the customer's service levels to over 99% on time, created real-time visibility through enhanced technology and stabilized the driver turnover almost immediately. Pyle’s services enabled the client to consolidate its fulfillment center, significantly decreasing costs. In addition, Pyle also helped lower the company's price per delivery by over 40%.
"Our approach is simple, we listen to our customers, learning their challenges, opportunities and business objectives,” said Frank Granieri, COO of Supply Chain Solutions at Pyle. “From there we set out to develop long-term partnerships, which are earned by designing and executing engineered solutions which deliver high quality customer service. This high level of quality service enables our customers to differentiate themselves from their competition.”
The winning projects serve as a roadmap for supply chain executives looking for new opportunities to improve their operations and show how supply chain solutions providers help their customers achieve supply chain excellence. Recipients were evaluated based on the scope of a client's project, creative application of technologies, solutions and services used, and the extent of the business results and impact.
This award recognition is the most recent in a string of impressive accomplishments for Pyle. It comes on the heels of recently being awarded the ATA President's Trophy – which is the highest safety award available to motor carriers in the U.S. – as well as being named a Regional Carrier of the Year by Transplace, an Uber Freight company.
