Most logistics tech doesn’t fail because the software is “bad.” It fails because implementation was treated like an afterthought. Nate Johnson (CEO of GLCS) breaks down how to vet vendors, budget correctly, handle integrations, and keep teams actually using the tool.

In this episode, we cover:
▪ How to know if you need a new tool or better use of what you already have
▪ Requirements that turn into test scripts and training
▪ The real costs that blow up budgets during implementation
▪ EDI, integrations, and why cutovers go sideways
▪ AI in logistics: what’s useful vs what’s just a label
