Synoptima Swift

“Every parcel decision your team makes manually is a margin decision made without data.”

Swift is the intelligent carrier allocation and last-mile automation engine — analysing every order in real time and routing it to the right carrier, at the right cost, with the right experience. Without spreadsheets. Without guesswork. Every time.

The best carrier for
every delivery. Always.

Most organisations select carriers through a combination of historical habit, negotiated contracts, and manual allocation rules that haven’t been updated in years. Swift replaces that with a continuously learning allocation engine — one that makes the optimal routing decision for every individual order based on live data.

From a retailer fulfilling 50,000 orders a day to a brand managing ship-from-store across 200 locations, Swift scales to the complexity of your operation and simplifies it down to a single dashboard — with full visibility and control at every level.

01

Smart Carrier Allocation Engine

Real-time selection of the cheapest or fastest carrier for every order — factoring live rates, performance data, and your specific allocation preferences.

02

Automated Shipping Rules

Configure logic by weight, dimensions, SKU, store location, delivery promise, or postcode — simple by default, infinitely configurable for complex needs.

03

100+ Carrier Connectivity

Access a vast network of domestic and international carriers through a single integration — no individual carrier API projects required.

04

Omnichannel Fulfilment Management

Centralised visibility and control across store, warehouse, and 3PL locations — with granular permissions for multi-site teams.

05

Customer Tracking & Notifications

Real-time delivery tracking and proactive customer communications that reduce WISMO enquiries and build post-purchase loyalty.

06

Performance Analytics & Optimisation

Carrier performance dashboards, cost trend analysis, and data-driven recommendations that continuously improve your carrier mix over time.

From manual allocation
to automated intelligence — in four phases.

A Swift deployment is designed for speed. Most clients are live with intelligent carrier allocation within 30 days, with the carrier audit delivering immediate insights before a single line of integration code is written.

01
Carrier Audit

Analyse your current carrier mix, allocation logic, spend patterns, and performance data. Quantify where cost is leaking and where delivery experience is falling short of customer expectations.

02
Rules Configuration

Configure your allocation logic in Swift — starting simple with cheapest/fastest defaults, then layering complexity for special handling, regional rules, and promotional requirements.

03
Integration & Go-Live

Connect your eCommerce platform, OMS, or WMS to Swift. Go live with automated allocation across your carrier network — typically within 2–4 weeks of rules sign-off.

04
Continuous Improvement

Swift learns from your network’s performance over time. Combine with Synoptima Pulse for continuous carrier mix optimisation based on live cost, service, and volume data.

Swift in action across
eCommerce and retail operations.

These illustrative scenarios reflect the delivery and fulfilment challenges Swift is built to solve — and the outcomes retailers and brands across Asia Pacific are achieving.

Fashion Retail

Automated carrier allocation
across 300 store locations

A fashion retailer operating ship-from-store across 300 locations was managing carrier allocation through a combination of Excel rules and manual overrides. Each store team made different decisions, creating inconsistent cost and customer experience across the network.

Swift centralised allocation logic across all 300 locations, reducing average freight cost per parcel by 14% and cutting manual allocation time from 4 hours to zero.
Health & Beauty

WISMO reduction through
proactive tracking

A health and beauty brand was receiving over 2,000 “Where Is My Order” enquiries per week — consuming significant customer service resource and eroding post-purchase satisfaction scores that fed directly into repeat purchase rates.

Swift’s proactive tracking notifications reduced WISMO volume by 67% within 60 days of deployment, recovering 12 customer service FTEs for higher-value work.
Electronics & Technology

Carrier downgrade programme
saving margin at volume

A consumer electronics retailer was defaulting to premium express carriers for all orders — including large proportions where standard delivery was equally fast but significantly cheaper. The allocation logic had no mechanism to identify and capture these savings automatically.

Swift’s automatic downgrade rules identified 38% of orders eligible for service downgrade with no impact to the delivery promise, saving $1.8M annually at current volumes.

Built for businesses where
every parcel costs or earns.

Swift delivers the most value for organisations where delivery volume is high enough that manual allocation creates real cost and experience risk — and where the gap between the best and worst carrier decision is material to margin.

If you’re managing more than a few hundred parcels a day and your carrier allocation isn’t fully automated, Swift will find savings and experience improvements immediately.

👗

Fashion & Apparel

High volume, multi-location, seasonal peaks and returns complexity that manual allocation cannot handle at speed.

🛍️

eCommerce Brands

Pure-play and omnichannel brands where last-mile cost is a significant portion of fulfilment economics.

🏥

Health, Beauty & FMCG

Frequent replenishment orders with high customer service expectations and post-purchase loyalty sensitivity.

📦

3PLs & Fulfilment Providers

Multi-client carrier management where a single allocation engine across the network creates competitive advantage.

Outcomes your operations team
will measure daily.

Swift’s impact is visible in your freight cost line, your customer service queue, and your repeat purchase rate — from the first month of deployment.

12%
Average Freight Cost Reduction
Achieved through smart carrier allocation, automatic downgrade identification, and continuous carrier mix optimisation.
67%
Reduction in WISMO Enquiries
Proactive tracking notifications eliminate the majority of “where is my order” contacts before they reach your customer service team.
50%
Time Saved on Fulfilment
Automation removes manual carrier selection, label printing decisions, and allocation override management from your operations team’s daily workload.

Begin with a
Carrier Audit.

A Swift engagement starts with a carrier audit — analysing your current allocation logic, carrier mix, spend data, and performance metrics to identify exactly where cost and experience are leaking. It’s a concrete deliverable that quantifies the savings opportunity before any commitment to deployment.
