The case exemplifies the challenging but successful journey of a cross-sector partnership that deploys pro bono resources from Agility, A.P. Moller Maersk, TNT Express and UPS to support the disaster response operations of the UN Logistics Cluster.
To transform an initially intangible idea into an operating venture, the partners invested in developing and maintaining sound relationships backed by core principles, standard operating procedures and also a training programme that was innovative. Additionally, the partnership needed active management at the corporate level. Building on a history of successful deployments by the end of 2011, the associates need to decide the best way to scale up their impact.
