How did uParcel handle the entire delivery process for MUIS?

Our delivery partner, Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura (MUIS) otherwise known as the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore, is a statutory board which looks after the administration and interests of Singapore's Muslim community.

At the end of every year, MUIS supplies their own publications to local madrasahs, Islamic religious schools whenever the new school term comes around. Our client, MUIS cultivates their own syllabus of educational textbooks and requires delivery to be made to all the various institutions.

As part of our partnership with the government agency, we took on a contract legacy project to handle the entire logistics process from managing inventory to packing and delivery. With the help of our operations team, we were able to handle the sorting and handling of the supply of books and quickly deliver them to their intended locations.

Our team was able to MUIS scale down operational costs as a cost-efficient 3PL (managing inventory, storage, and delivery) for their supply of books. Our client was able to achieve 30% operational savings and shift their focus to more important activities and deploy their internal resources to further support the community.

Choosing a right 3PL partner can be powerful ally in an organisation’s quest to be the best in their field. According to the 2021 State of Logistics Outsourcing Report, 91% of 3PL users agree that 3PL partnerships have been successful. So why did MUIS decide to partner with us for 3PL outsourced order fulfilment? There were three main reasons:

Exponential Cost Savings
