Many Indonesian freight forwarders operated with manual, fragmented tools—spreadsheets, emails, and messaging apps—which made shipment management inefficient and prone to error. The industry also had a low level of digital trust, with concerns over data security and client privacy.

05 | Outcome
Launched a functional MVP within 6 months, meeting 100% of scoped features
Onboarded 2 pilot companies with ~50 shipments/month processed through the platform
Reduced manual shipment coordination time by an estimated 30–40% for pilot users by centralizing updates, documents, and communication
Enabled faster document retrieval and shipment status checks, reducing internal response time from hours to minutes
Collected over 10 feature requests and workflow improvement suggestions directly from users, informing the product roadmap
Built early trust through responsive support and privacy assurance, laying the groundwork for broader industry adoption

This project taught me the importance of aligning digital tools with user readiness and trust. While adoption was slow, the experience strengthened my skills in leading design, mapping systems, and delivering functional MVPs. In the future, I would emphasize early user engagement and security assurance to boost adoption.
