Google Cloud has announced a partnership with Lyve, a global logistics solutions and technology company that is revolutionizing last-mile delivery solutions in the UAE and beyond. The collaboration enables Lyve to operate a digital SAAS platform built on Google Cloud that connects businesses with partners and customers while also facilitating the smooth and efficient operation of their entire supply chain.
Lyve connects businesses with their partners and customers via a patented cloud-based logistics platform and digital transformation innovations that process millions of orders each month. The company has built an ecosystem of digital products that meet the needs of online businesses at any point along the last-mile journey.
Lyve’s digital platform and flagship service are built on Google Cloud from the ground up. Google Cloud, with its flexible pricing, agile pay-as-you-go model, and managed solutions that automatically scale with Lyve’s business needs, provides Lyve with quick access to a set of high-quality and reliable services that ensure efficiency and security on the industry’s cleanest cloud. Service delivery speed and quality are all improved with the use of Kubernetes, CloudSQL, and Firebase.
Lyve’s decision to host their entire back-end on Google Cloud allows them to focus on growing their customers’ and partners’ businesses rather than worrying about the core system infrastructure and the drawbacks of an on-premise setup. Lyve’s customers also benefit from the digital platform’s ability to run their logistics operations smoothly, allowing them to focus on expanding and driving further growth for their businesses.
Customer satisfaction is embedded as a top priority for the business within Lyve’s digital platform on Google Cloud, as it provides real-time updates on delivery times and dispatches drivers with multiple orders within nearby locations to ensure items are delivered on time and in one trip.
Tarek Khalil, Director of Middle East and North Africa, Google Cloud said: “Google Cloud offers industry tailored solutions to help customers digitally transform their business. Google Cloud’s collaboration with Lyve is an exciting opportunity to work within the logistics sector in the Middle East region, which is a very dynamic and fast-moving industry that has a huge impact on the global economy. The role of cloud in improving the speed and efficiency of services comes to the forefront in this particular business model, and we are pleased to be able to support Lyve in ensuring their customers have access to a seamless delivery service.”
George Chogovadze, Chief Technology Officer, Lyve added: “Our goal is to make it easy for our customers to provide a faster, more accurate, and interactive delivery platform. We take care of the logistics side of things, leaving them to focus on their core business”.
Lyve also makes use of Google Workspace, which enables employees in 15 countries to connect, collaborate, and work remotely. Google Workspace also enables Lyve to hire talent from anywhere in the world without regard to location, and, most importantly, ensures that company data is securely stored on Google Cloud, avoiding any potential data breaches.
