The Challenge

Worldnet developed an in-house transport management system to manage their shipments, but it wasn’t utilized as expected. This led to several challenges, including:
Difficulty in identifying how users interacted with the system and the reasons behind its underutilization
Challenges in pinpointing the specific factors contributing to the system’s underperformance
Reliance on feedback from frontline staff that proved insufficient for gaining accurate insights
The necessity to seek external expertise to uncover and address the underlying issues effectively
