Background:

A third-party logistics provider and client of Open Sky Group serves international and domestic retailers from its logistics campus, managing more than 27,000 SKUs and sub-SKUs. It also provides value-added packaging, kitting, and e-commerce and retail order processing.

THE CHALLENGES

With over 1.1 million square feet of warehouse operations operating 24×7 with roughly 70 users, the client was experiencing end of life system issues for its WMS and was ready to make a number of supply chain software improvements throughout facilities that would help address:

 

  • The need to modernize hardware infrastructure and reduce security vulnerability
  • The need for labor management software, to help increase operational efficiencies and more effectively and proactively manage labor costs
  • Limited accessibility and e-commerce features in the client’s current WMS version

THE TRANSFORMATION

The client chose to work directly with Open Sky Group to upgrade to the newest version of their WMS because of their flexible, agile approach to implementations and early adoption of the newest versions of supply chain technology software. The upgrade was seamless to the client’s customers and the new WMS was managing the operation’s full volume within 24 hours of go-live.

Top of the line technology and software helped the client drive efficiencies up and costs down, while following their mission to provide the best customer service possible.  The client had a seamless upgrade/implementation experience with Open Sky Group’s team; therefore, no downtime was experienced with the upgrade which was critical for the client to maintain high customer service levels.   The new systems also helped the company handle the growing volume of orders, resulting in faster order processing and fulfillment times. The company’s management team was impressed with the results and expressed their gratitude to Open Sky Group for their expertise and support throughout the project.
