The Problem

Scattered data with no singular picture of how people and operations were actually performing

Vector Global Logistics is a logistics services company with employees organized into operational “cells” across North and South America.

Before the portal, employee performance data lived in three systems that never talked to each other. The company’s transportation management system, tracked file volumes, processing times, and client profitability were all disparate and performance reviews, a core tenant of the performance-based company were unstructured and manual. 

That meant leadership had no reliable way to answer basic questions: How is a specific employee trending over time? How does one group compare to another? Are operational bottlenecks showing up in the financials? What does ROI per employee actually look like once you combine salary, commissions, and file profitability?

For a company adding employees and expanding across countries, this made it difficult to make compensation decisions, identify development needs, or connect operational behavior to financial outcomes.

Application Surface areas & scope

Data creation, ingestion, and standardization

Structured Performance Evaluation Lifecycle

A full review cycle engine: supervisor evaluations, 360-degree peer reviews, customer satisfaction surveys, and quarterly meeting assessments.

Financial Progression Reporting with QuickBooks

Feeds key compensation and financial progression reports. Employees can view their own data and leadership has access to financial performance across all levels of the company.

Operational Analytics sourced from LogiWare

The platform pulls logistics data directly from LogiWare and turns raw operational metrics into dashboards that compare employees, cells, and countries against targets and each other.

Multi-level Dashboard Visibility

Views for each of the five organizational levels in the company lets users see the data at different organizational altitudes. Each dashboard adapts based on the user’s role and permissions.

Data Import Tool

For groups without direct QuickBooks integration, the data import tool lets administrators upload financial and operational data via CSV or Excel. The system validates data before anything is committed to the system.

Form Distribution Engine

Administrators manage and distribute forms to specific employees, groups, or the entire organization. The system tracks pending and completed forms and supports manual and automated distribution.
Our Approach

A system built to grow with a company’s needs.

Scope
1 portal, 3 connected data sources
The platform pulls employee, financial, and operational data from three systems: its own internal database for reviews, forms, and directories; A shared mapping layer connects employee records across all three systems to create holistic views
Partnership
4+ years of building and improving
A vision that began in mid-2022 with the core portal build and has iterated across multiple integration phases and expanded feature sets. What started as a performance review tool has expanded into a companywide operational platform.
Results
A platform made for radical transparency
Financials, operations data, and employee performance reviews now live in one place and can be accessed and compared across five levels of the company.
Define, Design, Build, Launch, Evolve

From where we started to where we’re going.

An initial blueprint aligned employee performance evaluation with the financial and operational metrics VGL already tracked. Development followed two-week Agile sprints with regular testing and client reviews, evolving into an ongoing partnership focused on continuous improvement.
