AI · Logistics · Last-Mile DeliveryAutomating last-mile logistics and cutting delivery costs across 30 million households
AI-powered availability systems and automated logistics planning — rebuilding the infrastructure behind one of the world's largest retail delivery operations.
Walmart needed to rebuild core logistics systems while simultaneously embedding modern AI capabilities — automating workflows and improving delivery performance across one of the world's largest retail operations. The challenge wasn't just technical. It was doing it at Walmart scale, without disrupting service to 30 million households.
What We Built
Rebuilding core systems at scale
Walmart's logistics infrastructure needed a ground-up rebuild — new systems for availability, routing, and capacity planning that could handle the scale of America's largest retailer. Not a patch. A full rearchitecture.
The rebuild had to happen without disrupting service to 30 million households that depend on Walmart delivery every week.
AI-powered logistics optimization
Developed new logistics algorithms while embedding modern AI capabilities to automate workflows and improve system performance. The result: a best-in-class last-mile delivery capability optimized to reduce costs and CO2 emissions.
These systems now power routing, capacity planning, and availability decisions across Walmart's entire delivery network — serving 30 million households with improved speed and reliability.
Impact at Walmart scale
35% estimated increase in pickup and delivery capacity. 15%+ estimated reduction in CO2 emissions generated by delivery services. 30M+ US households reached with improved delivery. Two complete product builds delivered in 2 months.
These aren't projections — they're the measurable outcomes of systems now running in production across Walmart's logistics network.
35% more delivery capacity. 15% fewer emissions. 30 million households served. The logistics system that powers Walmart's last mile.
