Glamox is a global supplier of professional lighting solutions for schools, hospitals, hotels, restaurants, maritime businesses, and offshore facilities.

With such a large and diverse customer base, the company must handle high shipping volumes with precision and speed.

When the team went looking for a new delivery management system, they wanted more than label printing. They needed a complete, state-of-the-art solution that could scale with the business and support their entire logistics operation.

Challenge

Glamox manages around 100,000 shipments annually from its main warehouse in Molde, Norway.
But the previous system didn’t give them the integration, automation, or control required to handle that volume efficiently.

The team wanted a platform that:

  • Integrated tightly with their Apport WMS
  • Reduced manual steps in warehouse and logistics workflows
  • Automated EDIs to carriers
  • Provided better insight into freight costs, shipment tracking, and invoice reconciliation
  • Was easy for employees to use across roles

nShift is a more complete solution than other delivery management systems, and we wanted a state-of-the-art system. It is the whole package. It has everything we need.

Solution

Glamox integrated nShift Ship directly with their WMS platform, Apport. This created a streamlined warehouse-to-carrier workflow, where data flows automatically, and employees work within familiar systems.

With the integration in place, Glamox can:

  • Transfer EDIs automatically to carriers
  • Avoid handling different carrier-specific requirements manually
  • Track each shipment and access freight documentation more quickly
  • See freight costs and invoices earlier
  • Let drivers scan parcels using their own phones

We transfer EDI to carriers automatically,  so we do not have to remember the many requirements of each supplier ourselves. nShift also gives us access to track and trace, an overview of freight costs and shipment history, and Scan App, which our drivers can use to scan parcels with their own phones.

Their logistics consultant described the experience as simple and intuitive:

It is almost scarily easy to use nShift, because it is integrated with our systems.

Results

After implementing nShift (alongside an investment in Apport WMS), Glamox saw a major uplift in efficiency across the warehouse.

We estimate that nShift, combined with the WMS system Apport, has increased the efficiency of our warehouse by 15–30%. It will also give us a better foundation for negotiating with carriers in the future.

The solution also enables:

  • Better insight for negotiating future freight agreements
  • Faster, more accurate order handling
  • Increased control over shipments and carrier interactions
  • A technology foundation Glamox plans to expand to more warehouses worldwide

With the great results [nShift] has given us, we plan to expand the use of the software to more of our warehouses around the world next year.
