UPS Helps Camping Company Keep Up With Santa's Elves
***This blog post contains a sponsored ad.***
UPS helped a camping company keep up with Santa's elves. Who knew that the experience of delivering millions of packages each year would make them an expert in logistics? UPS recently helped the Leave It To Beaver Campgrounds manage the high volume of packages they received each year, which required just-in-time delivery and predictable inventory management. The solution came in the form of UPS Tracking On Demand from Cortiva, which allows Leave It To Beaver Campgrounds to monitor and analyze their important mail volumes on real time basis. Now, UPS can schedule deliveries based on location or other factors that are important for their operation as needed rather than as scheduled by courier services like DHL or FedEx. By tracking UPS shipments using Cortiva's software, Leave It To Beaver Campgrounds can spend less time handling delivery schedules and more time keeping up with the elves.
"I was very pleased with what we got for our money." Mike Mancuzzi, Director of Operations at Leave It To Beaver said. "This software has given us a great foundation to implement change in our business. We have been able to reduce our labor by nearly 50% since implementing UPS Tracking On Demand."

Leave It To Beaver Campgrounds is a full service campground, offering amenities like swimming pools, mini golf, and RV and cabin rentals. The Leave It To Beaver Campgrounds uses UPS Tracking On Demand to monitor their mail volume on a daily basis. Since they deal with millions of packages each year, UPS Tracking On Delivery software from Cortiva gives them the ability to identify trends in their package volume and plan deliveries accordingly as needed by campers. Mike Mancuzzi noted that installing Cortiva software has proved to be an important asset for his organization as they work to develop the next generation of Leave It To Beaver Campgrounds experience.
"The software has given us the ability to collaborate and make decisions faster than ever before. The ability to have real time information on our business means less time to manually process data and more time spent creating the experience our customers demand."
"I am excited that we are implementing UPS Tracking On Demand from Cortiva into our delivery operations. Having the ability to track packages, regardless of carrier, in real-time will improve not only our inventory accuracy but also our labor savings. We hope to help campgrounds just like Mike Mancuzzi at Leave It To Beaver deliver an amazing customer experience," said Keith Anderson, Director of Product Management for Cortiva.
