Trimble Navigation: Close Collaboration and Shipping Flexibility Inspire Confidence
Open communication, flexibility and a close working relationship throughout the shipping process have made the Trimble/ DHL partnership a real success.
Trimble Navigation is a designer and manufacturer of technology such as GPS devices that makes field and mobile workers in businesses and government significantly more productive. Having previously used freight forwarders to send finished products and parts from Mexico to the U.S., early 2007 saw them expand their partnership with DHL to better serve their transportation needs from Mexico.
Quick fulfillment within cycle times as short as 24 hours is critical for Trimble to meet the needs of its customers in agriculture, mining, construction, and other industries. “Positioning, wireless and information technologies are changing the way industry does business,” says Brigitte Smith, Logistics Analyst for Trimble Navigation. “Any delay in product distribution can have a serious impact on a customer’s overall productivity and efficiency.”
