Westshore Terminals reduces costs by 80% over 3 months with a data integration strategy

Westshore Terminals, the largest bulk loading facility in North America, connects multiple transportation lines to Canada’s premier port terminal for exporting bulk material globally. As an incredibly complex organization, Westshore has a large array of data at its fingertips, but they realized much of this information was siloed between departments, and considerable manual effort was required to conduct operations.  

As Westshore was looking for revenue growth opportunities, they identified that they needed to better leverage their data to drive informative decision-making. Westshore Terminals partnered with Fastloop to come up with a data integration strategy that would enable them to transform data into meaningful business value.
