Operating across Atlantic Canada with 10 terminals and over 250 employees, MBW Courier required a digital transformation to modernize logistics operations. To meet this need, Rollin developed a comprehensive shipping platform on Drupal 10 that handles dynamic rate calculations, payment processing, and parcel tracking while integrating carrier systems for same-day and next-day delivery services throughout the Maritimes.

Understanding the challenge
Complex rate structures created operational bottlenecks across MBW's regional network. These pricing calculations needed to account for dimensional weight, fuel surcharges, client-specific discounts, maximum weight thresholds, dangerous goods fees, tailgate delivery charges, and pallet rates.
Beyond calculation complexity, the platform required integration with Moneris payment processing and ShipTrack carrier APIs while supporting bulk data management for address books and Excel rate documents across all service points.
Finding the right solution
Building on Drupal 10's flexibility, Rollin engineered a logistics platform with custom calculation engines that process multi-tier weight scaling and dimensional algorithms. This foundation supports Moneris integration for secure payment workflows and automated billing, while ShipTrack API connectivity delivers carrier synchronization and real-time shipment visibility.
Automated barcode generation creates carrier-compliant identifiers for supply chain scanning, and multi-location management applies origin-specific fuel surcharges. Client portals complete the system by enabling waybill generation, label printing, and pick status notifications without requiring dispatch coordination.
Delivering outstanding results
Platform deployment eliminated manual rate calculation processes and waybill creation across MBW's operations. This automation extends through Moneris payment processing, which accelerates billing cycles while reducing administrative overhead.
ShipTrack integration enhances customer experience by providing delivery confirmation and recipient signatures, while real-time tracking capabilities improve exception handling and service response times. The platform's architecture supports expansion into additional service areas and specialized shipping products as operational needs evolve.
