[06.57] Nitin\u2019s founder story, and the journey that led him to establish Pando.

\u201cWe set out to build a marketplace for domestic freight \u2013 Uber for freight!... Along the way something interesting started happening: our customers... started asking us if we could expand our tech into other freight and warehousing providers.\u201d

[11.20] An overview of Pando \u2013 what they do, and how they help their customers.

\u201cMost management solutions were built before the year 2000\u2026 The tech that sustains global supply chains is completely archaic!\u201d

[15.57] A look at some of the key challenges Pando\u2019s customers are facing right now, and Pando\u2019s approach to solving them.

"These are brands that we love and live with\u2026 these brands ultimately serve you and me, so the mission for Pando, of course is to solve supply chain issues and logistics inefficiencies, but really is to serve the brand we love to help those brands serve us better!\u201d

[23.21] The importance of good data, and Pando\u2019s game-changing control tower capabilities.

"You don\u2019t put the control tower at the top, you put it at the bottom \u2013 it\u2019s the foundational layer of data that feeds into these systems\u2026 the input is controlled, so you\u2019re not only able to solve the data problem, but you\u2019re able to predict and prevent the challenges."

[27.00] A closer look at Pando\u2019s TMS solution, and how it can revolutionize dispatch planning and decision-making.

\u201cWith Pando, the time to value is 90 days \u2013 and that\u2019s a gamechanger. It\u2019s a gold standard when it comes to enterprise technology.\u201d

[43.43] The ideal client for Pando.
