Logistic Solutions and Results Moovit contracted a container manufacturer, who produces containers for the U.S. Military to manufacture a custom airfreight container (Moovit`s AutoGuard Container). The container is constructed using military-grade aluminum and provides unmatched safety and security during shipping and handling.

Packaging for bio pharmaceuticals Packaging solutions for global bio-pharmaceuticals manufacturer Palletized shipping was causing damage to pharmaceutical samples. Moovit Logistics helped to create a custom solution to protect the shipping and storage for this global manufacturer. Clients Needs and Our Goals Damaged shipment problems persisted for several years at great financial loss to the Client. Countless attempts were made to rectify the issue, including pallet toppers, pallet cone protocol, new pallet-building procedures, even labels. None of these measures reduced incidences of damage. The Client, unsure of the root of the problem, had instructed the warehouse to utilize “Do Not Top” labels and cones. Unfortunately, adherence to these types of instructions and products create significant cost increases for carriers, drastically reducing the amount of freight on a vehicle by 50%. Project Solutions and Results After a thorough investigation, we concluded that there was damage throughout the pallets. A significant percentage of the damage was due to sloppy double stacking of pallets, which crushed and ripped the tops of boxes, corners and side walls. Moovit introduced the client to a product it had initially developed to provide added security for controlled substance shipments. The product, a “double-walled pallet sleeve,” allowed Moovit to quickly, easily and cost-effectively provide double-walled corrugated protection to all sample shipments. cargo collaborative delivery Chocolate Logistics Prev Temperature Shipping Next A SHORT BRIEF Here to Help Your Business Need Stop worrying about any shipping problems.

Developing a ‘Future-Proofed’ Sustainability Strategy As the world’s largest container shipping company, Maersk Line transports more than 15 percent of all shipped containers. In an industry that transports more than a third of the value of global trade—and accounts for about 4 percent of the world’s carbon emissions—Maersk Line has a tremendous economic, social, and environmental footprint. Facing pressure to reduce the company’s environmental and social impacts, Maersk Line leaders viewed this challenge as an opportunity to offer customers a value proposition on sustainability that could not be matched by competitors. Company leaders asked BSR to help develop a “future-proofed” sustainability strategy. Internal Review and Current State Through interviews with executive management, regional leaders, and sustainability professionals, BSR gathered details about Maersk Line’s corporate objectives, strategy, business model, and existing sustainability efforts. This work clarified company strengths and weaknesses and defined key drivers for the company’s sustainability performance. We discovered that Maersk Line lacked a comprehensive approach to working on and communicating about sustainability, which made it difficult for company managers to establish a business case for new programs. External Review and Future State Next, we built a set of future trends such as “hypertransparency,” regulated carbon, and resource constraints that business leaders would need to consider in strategic planning for the next seven to 10 years. We then tested these trends with employees and management teams to ensure a global perspective and identify specific regional challenges. Together with consultations with the company’s major customers and key industry stakeholders. Build Vision and Strategy Moovit helped Maersk Line define a strong sustainability vision supported by objectives such as reducing carbon-dioxide emissions by 25 percent by 2020 and striving for zero sulfur-dioxide emissions. This strategy will raise the bar for sustainability in the industry. cargo collaborative delivery supply The Automotive Group Prev Chocolate Logistics Next A SHORT BRIEF Here to Help Your Business Need Stop worrying about any shipping problems.

The Automotive Industry Action Group The Automotive Industry Action Group: supply chain goals The automotive global supply chain touches nearly every other industry, including steel, plastics, textiles, electronics, and more. As scrutiny of human rights practices in other industries heated up, the automotive sector knew it could soon become a target if it did not proactively address the social impacts of its operations. In an effort to improve the working conditions of the automotive supply chain, five major auto companies sought BSR’s help to create a set of working conditions guidelines and other tools. BSR was assisted by a sizeable grant from the U.S. State Department to fund this initiative. Our Strategy: On-site training and Corporate engagement The goal of the Working Conditions Initiative, housed at the Automotive Industry Action Group (AIAG), was to create a sustainable auto forum focused on working conditions. Over two years, BSR worked hand in hand with manufacturers, some suppliers and other stakeholders to create and implement a program for improving working conditions. Logistic Solutions and Results The five participating lead auto companies, AIAG and BSR created guidelines and trainings to improve working conditions to meet stakeholder expectations. This new best practice framework can now be integrated into every tier of the automotive supply chain, allowing it to have substantial impact. cargo delivery supply The Maritime Network Prev Strategy Developing Next A SHORT BRIEF Here to Help Your Business Need Stop worrying about any shipping problems.

The Maritime Anti-Corruption Network The Maritime Anti-Corruption Network: Argentina Collective Action The Maritime Anti-Corruption Network (MACN) recognized through its anonymous incident reporting mechanism frequent recurring reports of financial demands made during the vessel clearance process in Argentina. Our Strategy To address this challenge, MACN sought to understand the root causes and devise solutions with a coalition of champions. MACN and local partner Governance Latam, in collaboration with other industry stakeholders, catalyzed a collective action program to investigate the root causes of the problem and support SENASA in reforming its procedures to tackle systemic corruption. Our Outcomes and Impact Following a series of public consultations on the new regulation, MACN’s collective action resulted in a new regulatory framework in Argentina that reduces discretion in the inspection of holds and tanks, establishes a system of cross-checks to increase integrity, provides an escalation process when disputes occur, and creates an e-governance system to underpin the framework. Inspections will be conducted by registered private surveyors, and, in case of conflict, bulk carriers will be able to request supervision of these inspectors from SENASA. cargo collaborative warehouse Imported products Prev The Automotive Group Next A SHORT BRIEF Here to Help Your Business Need Stop worrying about any shipping problems.

Imported products Logistics Case Study Rubber products manufacturer uses Moovit FTZ to improve cash flow This major manufacturer makes rubber products for a wide range of uses, including supermarket check-out counters, package handling, and exercise equipment. The company imports raw material from overseas into the port in Norfolk, VA. So we used Moovit customer service resources to reduce administrative time. On the customer’s behalf, Moovit handled filing of monthly FTZ 214 documents with U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Situation and Logistic Strategy Rubber products manufacturer wanted to stage this raw material at a warehouse close to key manufacturing sites in Eastern NC – ideally a warehouse with foreign trade zone (FTZ) status. Moovit Logistics fit the bill on all fronts and the companies have enjoyed a successful partnership since 2008. Leverage FTZ advantages to improve cash flow Moovit stores material in its general purpose FTZ in Eastern NC. Since FTZs are considered outside U.S. Customs territory, there can be an immediate movement of goods to Moovit’s FTZ, delaying the payment of Customs duty and excise taxes until the product leaves the facility. To support unplanned activity spikes, Moovit can recruit trained workers at a moment’s notice since four other Kanban warehouses are located very close to the FTZ. This enables a very responsive inbound logistics solution without the need for outside temporary labor. cargo collaborative delivery warehouse Nestlé Waters Prev The Maritime Network Next A SHORT BRIEF Here to Help Your Business Need Stop worrying about any shipping problems.

Nestlé Waters North America Nestlé Waters North America: Strengthening Dialogue with Communities As the largest producer of bottled spring water in the United States, Nestlé Waters North America (NWNA) faces a unique set of challenges related to managing a natural resource perceived by many as a public good. The company has faced criticism at its spring water sites in North America from community members who have two primary concerns. Our Goals and Project Strategy Our goal was to design a companywide framework for siting and community involvement that addresses NWNA business objectives, includes full participation by and addresses the concerns of the community and government agencies, and is designed with the input of national stakeholders. To execute this project, we employed our experience developing community-engagement strategies for the extractives industry, as well as our expertise in responsible natural resource management. Logistic Solutions and Results At the time of this Report’s publication, NWNA was at the midway point of this engagement, and the company had already begun to take several important steps toward the development and implementation of the new siting framework. We believe that, if implemented, this will lead to a more consistently successful approach to engaging with communities. collaborative food warehouse Imported products Next A SHORT BRIEF Here to Help Your Business Need Stop worrying about any shipping problems.
