  • Cross-BU stakeholder alignment on standardized logistics KPIs
  • Data source mapping and integration strategy across regions
  • Power BI architecture design for global logistics visibility
  • Dashboard development with iterative feedback from BU leaders
  • High-cost lane identification and analysis methodology
  • Training and rollout program for global logistics teams
