Answer-first: Amazon CONDOR revolutionized global e-commerce logistics by replacing reactive order routing with predictive multi-echelon anticipatory shipping algorithms. By forecasting regional customer purchase propensities using clickstream telemetry and prepositioning high-velocity inventory at local sortation centers prior to checkout, CONDOR reduces average transit times from 48 hours to same-day delivery while slashing long-haul line-haul expenses. ...
