General Electric - 2Ship

General Electric

Project Detail

Before switching to 2Ship, GE’s shipping process was siloed and inefficient. They were using FedEx Ship Manager with limited integration capabilities. When advised to try ShipStation, they found the platform unable to support their advanced needs—including multi-currency invoicing for international shipments, customization, and visibility.

About this project

GE sought a modern, scalable solution that would:

• Integrate seamlessly with SAP

• Streamline both office and warehouse shipping

• Support global documentation and compliance

• Centralize policy enforcement across locations

2Ship met every requirement and more. With 2Ship in place, GE users enjoyed a more intuitive interface, automated workflows, and seamless collaboration between corporate teams and fulfillment centers. Real-time insights and centralized control helped GE align their logistics strategies worldwide.

Strategies Employed

• Workflow Automation: Ship Request enabled internal users to initiate shipping requests while fulfillment teams handled the execution—reducing errors and delays.

• ERP Integration: SAP connectivity allowed orders to sync directly with 2Ship, removing manual entry and ensuring data accuracy.

• Global Compliance: Electronic customs clearance and multi-currency invoice support streamlined international operations.

• Policy Enforcement: 2Ship’s dashboard gave GE the tools to control shipping permissions, carrier selection, and cost thresholds globally.

• Scalability: The solution was flexible enough to support both head office mailrooms and high-volume distribution centers.

Outcome

GE began with a 4-site rollout. After seeing rapid operational improvements, they committed to expanding 2Ship to 10 more global locations.

Results delivered:

• A single, global platform for office and warehouse shipping

• Faster processing and fewer errors via automation and barcode scanning

• Seamless Oracle integration saving hours of manual work

• Improved international capabilities with full customs and currency support

• Company-wide visibility and control over all shipping activity

2Ship continues to grow with GE’s logistics operations—offering the visibility, consistency, and agility needed for global success.
