alltours: Promotional products logistics and exception handling.

Since 2022, PROWERB has run the complete promotional products logistics for alltours: order and invoice processing in the shop, order-to-cash, goods receipt, dispatch and notification. And the part no scope of work likes to put out to tender — exception handling. Transport deviations, non-receipt, cancellations: every one of these cases lands with us, not with the operator.

alltours: Promotional products logistics and exception handling.
01 · Starting point

Promotional products logistics is day-to-day business. The real work is in the exceptions.

alltours runs no campaign peaks. Their promotional-products business is almost pure ongoing operations: order, shelve, ship — week after week. Three parties hang on every transaction: the supplier who delivers, the carrier who ships, and the recipient who waits. If everything runs smoothly, nobody notices.

If something deviates — a shortfall, transport damage, a shipment marked delivered in the system yet still missing — the case needs an owner. Otherwise it wanders through the customer's organization as an open question.

Promotional products logistics is day-to-day business. The real work is in the exceptions.
02 · Solution

One chain, one owner: from order intake to a resolved deviation.

PROWERB takes over the entire chain. The shop handles orders and invoices, goods receipt posts inventory in real time, dispatch runs via parcel service and freight carrier, recipients are notified, shipments are tracked. If an exception case arises, it stays on the same chain: we handle the correspondence with suppliers, carriers and recipients — in the operator's name. The customer is the public face, we work behind it. None of the three conversations lands on their desk.

03 · Handling an exception case

An exception case runs through four stations — and ends with a posting, not an open question.

Exception handling follows the same system as ongoing operations. Four stations, documented in the system:

  1. 01

    Reporting

    Non-receipt despite delivery status, deviation or extra cost in transport, order cancellation. Every case is set up as its own transaction — not treated as a side-issue disruption.

  2. 02

    Verification

    Shipment history, proof of delivery, inventory posting: the case is checked against the system status before anyone responds. Claim versus posting, not opinion versus opinion.

  3. 03

    Correspondence

    With the carrier, the supplier, the recipient — in the operator's name. Following up, holding deadlines, collecting responses until the case is decided.

  4. 04

    Closure

    Cancellation, invoice correction or credit note. The transaction closes with a clean posting — which also settles it for the customer's accounting.

04 · Result

Four years of operation. The operator no longer has carrier conversations.

The mandate has run without interruption since 2022 — a continuous stream of order, dispatch and exception-handling transactions, with almost no campaign share. The result of this operation doesn't show up in a campaign report — it shows up in what no longer happens at the customer's end: no transport clarifications, no non-receipt correspondence, no cancellation follow-up in-house. Promotional products logistics has gone from a topic to a given.

Framing

An exception case is not a disruption. It's a transaction with an owner, a deadline and a closing posting.

Full-service fulfillment doesn't prove itself through the shipments that arrive. It proves itself through the ones that don't.

FAQ

Common questions about promotional products logistics with exception handling.

Does PROWERB also handle the exception cases — or only dispatch?

The entire chain, including the exceptions. Transport deviations, non-receipt reports and cancellations are set up as transactions and handled at PROWERB — including correspondence with suppliers, carriers and recipients. None of these conversations lands on your desk.

How does an exception case actually run?

In four documented stations: reporting as its own transaction, verification against the system status — shipment history, proof of delivery, inventory posting —, correspondence with all parties involved, and closure via cancellation, invoice correction or credit note. The case ends with a clean posting, not an open question.

Does PROWERB represent us to our recipients in our name?

Yes. Correspondence with the carrier, supplier and recipient runs in the client's name. Your brand is the public face, PROWERB works behind it.

Does the model also work without campaign business, in pure ongoing operations?

Yes — this case is the proof. The mandate has run since 2022 with almost no campaign share: order, shelve, ship, week after week, plus exception handling. The value shows up in what no longer happens at the customer's end.

How do we keep track of inventory and transactions?

Goods receipt posts inventory in real time in the PROWERB CORE system, shipments are notified and tracked, every exception case is documented as a transaction in the system. Your dedicated contact is a fixed team, not a call center.

How do we get from our current setup to this model?

The entry point is a non-binding Needs Check in under 60 seconds. Onboarding follows, taking around 14 weeks to go-live.

How many open exception cases are sitting in your organization right now?

If transport deviations, non-receipt reports and cancellations keep piling up internally, that's an operating-model question, not a staffing question. Describe your chain to us — we'll show you what it looks like with one owner.
