Resilience 360, Riskpulse rebrand as Everstream Analytics

Supply chain risk management firms Resilience 360 and Riskpulse have rebranded as Everstream Analytics, the companies said today. The move follows the January 2020 acquisition of Riskpulse by investment firms Columbia Capital and Greenspring Associates and logistics giant DHL, which developed Resilience 360 as part of its DHL Global Innovation Center in 2014.



The new brand launches a platform that combines the capabilities of both companies’ global supply chain risk analytics solutions, which include real-time and predictive analytics to help shippers “get in front of what’s ahead,” according to Everstream CEO David Shillingford.


“The word Everstream not only conveys resilience and agility, but it also describes the uninterrupted flow of materials, goods, and revenue through our clients’ supply chains,” Shillingford said in a statement announcing the launch. “Our unique capabilities come from applying AI to proprietary data at scale along with our team’s deep expertise in supply chain risk analytics. We believe that risk analytics should be embedded in supply chain digitization and data-driven decision making across all functions and our API-centric approach enables this. This enables our clients to turn risk into a competitive advantage. As our new tagline says, we help our clients to ‘Get in Front of What’s Ahead.'”


Everstream Analytics provides risk management solutions to shippers in a range of industries, including consumer packaged goods, life sciences, and healthcare. Its solutions are integrated with and built across the DHL transportation and logistics network, and DHL remains a shareholder in the company. Although the companies share clients, Everstream Analytics operates independently and provides solutions to companies that use other logistics networks, according to Shillingford.


Everstream’s solutions assess, predict, and monitor all risks through each phase of “Plan, Source, Make, and Deliver,” according to the company. Its predictive models analyze more than 20 billion data points every day, and real-time, on-the-ground proprietary supply chain intelligence is sourced directly in 220 countries. Its platform “enables a holistic, integrated, dynamic, and predictive approach to supply chain risk management,” the company also said.


The platform and rebrand is the next step in Resilience 360’s journey, according to DHL. 


“The solution has shown its value to DHL and our customers throughout the current Covid-19 pandemic. We look forward to being closely involved in the future strategic and operational direction of the combined platform,” Katja Busch, DHL’s chief commercial officer, said in a statement announcing the launch.

The survey—which included information from more than 1,000 U.S. consumers gathered in January—provides insight into the main reasons consumers return products, generational differences in return and online shopping behaviors, and the steadily growing influence that sustainability has on consumers.

Automation delivers results for high-end designer

When you get the chance to automate your distribution center, take it.

That's exactly what leaders at interior design house Thibaut Design did when they relocated operations from two New Jersey distribution centers (DCs) into a single facility in Charlotte, North Carolina, in 2019. Moving to an "empty shell of a building," as Thibaut's Michael Fechter describes it, was the perfect time to switch from a manual picking system to an automated one—in this case, one that would be driven by voice-directed technology.

In search of the right WMS

IT projects can be daunting, especially when the project involves upgrading a warehouse management system (WMS) to support an expansive network of warehousing and logistics facilities. Global third-party logistics service provider (3PL) CJ Logistics experienced this first-hand recently, embarking on a WMS selection process that would both upgrade performance and enhance security for its U.S. business network.

The company was operating on three different platforms across more than 35 warehouse facilities and wanted to pare that down to help standardize operations, optimize costs, and make it easier to scale the business, according to CIO Sean Moore.
