A briefing from Enmovil

Home Depot repriced your trucks.
Three weeks ago.

March 29, 2026. Free major appliance delivery ends[14]. Every outbound lane from New Bern just got re-priced mid-quarter. The load plan needs rewriting. SAP TM isn't live yet[1]. One specific way to close the gap before Q3 dispatch planning locks.

“No matter how well we can plan product allocation and order promising, if we're not able to execute and deliver as planned, everything falls flat.”

“With demand-driven material requirements planning, we are reducing our stocks and improving our ability to deliver to our customers at the same time.”

The situation

Three things hit at once. Last quarter's load plan doesn't fit this one.

On March 29, Home Depot ended free major appliance delivery and moved to tiered pricing[14]. Every outbound truck from New Bern reprices mid-quarter. The $32M expansion to 1M dishwashers and 100K cooking products is live[6]. The SAP TM and EWM rollout is still in progress[1]. More volume off the dock, repriced channels, and the execution system that should absorb both isn't live yet.

40+plants
Five brands on one planning stack.[5]
150+DCs
Warehouses worldwide.[5]
1M+dishwashers
New Bern 2025 target. Plus 100K cooking products.[6]

Caddie
Enmovil's agentic AI. Sits above SAP IBP for Response and Supply, SAP TM, SAP EWM, and SAP Business Network for Logistics[1][9]. Closes the loop between plan and execution without disturbing the transformation already in flight.
Caddie · Enmovil's AI co-pilot

Six agents. One continuous loop. Over SAP IBP, SAP TM, SAP EWM. No rip and replace.

A shipment enters at Demand Sensing and exits at Settlement, autonomously, in minutes. Then the next one enters.[9]

Demand Sensing
Forecasts pull across all five brands from live customer signals.
Inbound Capacity
Sequences inbound components against line appetite.
Yard & Dock
Yard plus dock scheduling across 59 docks at New Bern.
Dispatch
3PL selection, TMS routing, freight per unit re-priced daily.
Multimodal
FTL, LTL, ocean, two-man final mile on one tower.
Settlement & Spend
Freight audit, damage claims, landed cost per unit.
Caddie, per Enmovil's own positioning: “Your AI co-pilot for supply chain orchestration. Unifies planning, logistics, and execution into one autonomous intelligence layer.”[9]
Caddie applied to your operation

Five places Caddie removes the lag. Pick the one bleeding the most.

01 · Damage in transit
An appliance clears four handoffs before a kitchen. Where does each one leak unit margin?
Today
Category damage runs 3 to 9 percent; up to 11 percent of unit loads arrive damaged at a DC.[7]
Cost
Ryder hit 99.97 percent damage-free on Abt; 25 percent of inventory damage happens in transit.[10][15]
Caddie
Damage events tagged at the lane, handler, and carrier level. Bad handoffs surface on the same screen as freight spend.
02 · The plan was written before March 29
The IBP output for this quarter was built before Home Depot's reprice. Who is rewriting it, on what system?
Today
SAP IBP community notes flag disaggregation drift when monthly demand pushes to weekly and back.[16]
Cost
Bernard Czap said it: when execution misses plan, “everything falls flat.”[1] Now layer in a mid-quarter reprice with TM not yet live.
Caddie
Ingests the IBP output, senses customer pull and channel cost signals, and re-decides dispatch in minutes. Not on Monday's S&OP cadence; not waiting for TM go-live.
03 · Carrier allocation mid-quarter
Home Depot repriced. The carrier allocation built for free-delivery economics is now wrong. Who absorbed it, and how?
Today
Dealer wants pallets Tuesday. Builder wants a job-site drop Wednesday. Big box wants cross-dock under new economics. Homeowner wants two-crew Thursday at 10am.
Cost
Tiered pricing as of March 29[14] shifts which lanes are worth FTL versus LTL versus 3PL last mile. Three weeks in.
Caddie
Re-prices freight per unit daily by lane and carrier against live channel cost signals. One dispatch layer across FTL, LTL, and final mile, rewritten in minutes, not in a planning cycle.
04 · Yard and dock at New Bern
59 docks, 1M square feet, 1M dishwashers a year. Who sequences yard, dock, and line appetite on the same screen?
Today
APQC: best-in-class dock-to-stock 8 to 10 hours, midsize 12 to 24, 3PL handed sites up to 48.[8]
Cost
Yard inefficiency erodes up to 20 percent of throughput.[12] Peer YMS rollout: 39 percent dwell compression, 30 percent lower detention year one.[13]
Caddie
Yard management and dock scheduling as one decision. Inbound receiving, staging, outbound loading sequenced against line appetite and customer pull.
05 · Reverse logistics and refusals
A refusal at the door turns a unit into a round trip. Which lane, which crew, which day generates them?
Today
Big-and-bulky returns run 20 to 40 percent; retailers recover roughly 10 percent of value on a bulky return.[11][17]
Cost
A single return averages $20 to $30 and ~30 percent of item value.[17] Warranty accruals on appliances run up to 7 percent of sales.[18]
Caddie
Forward and reverse on one control tower. Refusal patterns flag the lane or crew causing them, not the customer.

The ask

60 to 90 minutes. One problem scoped. Experiments defined before we leave the room.

We walk through the load plan, carrier allocation, and yard sequencing problems created by March 29, with your numbers. We leave with two or three scoped experiments and a shared baseline for what New Bern should be costing before SAP TM is fully live. Three questions to frame what we bring.

Question 1 of 3
When Home Depot moved to tiered pricing on March 29, what broke first?
Carrier rates negotiated for free-delivery volume; mix no longer holds
Load plan built for big box economics; needs rewriting for the new tiers
Nothing broke; absorbed in manual planner hours
Still working it out; three weeks in, the answer isn't clean
Question 2 of 3
While SAP TM is mid-rollout, what is covering dispatch and carrier allocation at New Bern right now?
Manual. Planners on spreadsheets or legacy tools
Partial TM: some lanes live, others not
3PL is absorbing the decision; less visibility than we want
IBP output drives it; weekly plan against daily execution
Question 3 of 3
At New Bern's 59 docks, where is the throughput pinch showing up?
Yard sequencing. Inbound and outbound competing for the same gates
Dock scheduling. Hours lost between carrier arrival and dock availability
Channel mix. Dealer, builder, and big box want different load configs off the same floor
Not yet. Expansion is new enough we expect it soon

If you have already solved the March 29 reprice cleanly, that is the most interesting version of this conversation. Bring one planner who touches New Bern dispatch and one person from the SAP TM rollout team.
