Malaysia headquartered Nationwide Express Courier Services 
Berhad, leading providers of courier, freight forwarding and customised logistics services in Malaysia today announced that it will implement Ramco Systems’ Logistics ERP Software across 180+ locations. Ramco’s partner SpectreSynergie, a Malaysia based IT Consulting company played a vital role in this engagement.
Founded in 1985, Nationwide Express is one of the first few locally established companies in Malaysia, with its principal activity being that of a courier service provider. Supported by 1,400 dedicated employees, 300 fleet of NATWIDE mobiles and 500 motorbike couriers, it meets the demand for door-to-door fast, efficient and reliable service for speedy transfer of lightweight and high value goods between locations.
To date, its network encompasses 180 nationwide locations across 3 ASEAN nations – Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei Darussalam; comprising branches, service centres and agents. Through its alliances with reputable international companies and agents, Nationwide Express delivers to over 200 countries worldwide.
Taking into cognizance Nationwide Express’ comprehensive and extensive courier network, it needs to adopt and adapt the changing landscape of the courier industry to stay in the forefront of the industry. Nationwide Express will replace multiple legacy systems to bring Ramco solution as the single unified ERP to cover Express Cargo & Small Parcel Management, Fleet (Asset) Management, SCM (Procurement & Inventory Management), Finance & Accounting, Human Capital Management and Payroll along with Business Analytics.
