FedEx Freight $100M Dispatch Platform

Director of IT, FedEx. Led architecture, delivery and a 150+ person multinational team.

FedEx Freight dispatch platform architecture: driver handheld and in-cab devices feed a microservice platform that serves central dispatch, dock planning and on-road management. $100M+ program, 150+ engineers across 3 countries.

Problem

FedEx Freight needed one nationwide system connecting drivers, docks and dispatch, with speed to market.

What I did

  • Set the strategy for in-cab solutions, dock planning and distribution, on-road management and central operations systems
  • Built a microservice platform that sped up the driver handheld infrastructure
  • Integrated third-party PaaS and SaaS products to shorten time to market for nationwide dispatch
  • Built and led 150+ engineers and consultants across the US, India and the Philippines

Result

  • $100M+ platform delivered nationwide

How this applies to you

Most carriers don't need a $100M platform. They need the TMS, telematics and dispatch tools they already pay for to talk to each other. Operate engagements start with an inventory of what you run today and fix the handoffs before anything new is bought. See the Operate work →
