The Challenge: From Paper-Based Processes to Digital Delivery Excellence
IDI Distributors is one of the leading wholesale insulation distributors in the U.S., with a 40+ year legacy of putting the customer first. With 66 locations nationwide, they pride themselves on ensuring that contractors have access to the widest range of insulation products—from trusted global brands—delivered reliably and on time.
After successfully implementing a new ERP system, IDI recognized an opportunity to digitize and optimize their last mile logistics. At the time, they were still relying on paper forms, spreadsheets, and whiteboards to manage deliveries, pickups, and returns—along with paper-based proof of service. This led to inefficiencies and limited visibility into their fleet operations, especially across a mix of owned and 3PL trucks.
They needed a better way to manage delivery operations—and DispatchTrack provided the answer.
