Challenge

FDL managed a 120,000 square foot warehouse in Phoenix City, Alabama and needed a more efficient, cost-effective logistics model that reduced transportation pressure without disrupting operations.

Newl solution

Newl developed a transition plan to close the Alabama facility and decentralize inventory into new warehouse locations in Portland, Oregon and Charleston, South Carolina.

Result

The new warehouse placement reduced transportation costs, improved supply chain flexibility, and let FDL focus internal resources on its core business while Newl supported the logistics transition.

Operational scope

  • Warehouse closure and transition planning
  • Inventory transfer coordination
  • 3PL warehouse network design
  • Portland and Charleston inventory positioning
  • Transportation cost reduction strategy

Automotive RMA and reverse logistics

DriV

Automotive returns workflow with RMA validation, customs documentation, and cross-border consolidation.

Challenge

Automotive returns require more than receiving product back into a warehouse. Each part needs to match RA and RMA records, carry the right product data, and move back across the border with clean documentation.

Newl solution

Newl supports DriV with an automotive reverse logistics workflow that receives returns, validates SKU data, confirms country of origin, HS code, and value, then prepares customs documentation for consolidated return movement.

Result

Returned inventory is controlled through a repeatable warehouse process, supported by EDI data, customs documentation, and full-truckload cross-border consolidation back to the U.S.

Operational scope

  • Receive returns against issued RA and RMA records
  • Scan product into Newl systems and validate SKU-level data
  • Confirm country of origin, HS code, and declared value
  • Generate BOL, commercial invoice, packing list, and customs documents
  • Consolidate returns into cross-border FTL shipments
