- Workforce Enablement: Extensive training and change management initiatives have accelerated technology adoption across global teams.
- Strategic Partnerships: The collaboration with Rackspace and AWS ensured best-practice deployment and a smooth transition.
“Our aim was to simplify and scale operations for a global logistics landscape,” said D K Sinha, President of Public Cloud, Rackspace Technology. “This partnership has reinforced ECU’s digital capabilities while improving resilience and customer responsiveness.”
Kapil Mahajan, Global CIO and CTO at Allcargo Group, noted, “This transformation addressed both operational complexity and compliance, allowing us to deliver next-gen logistics services powered by cloud and data.”
