Major Apparel Manufacturers
Apparel Focus,
Retail Compliance, 3PL Design and Value Added Services - Provide a Competitive
Advantage
New Jersey - USA:
QSSI
has announced that Brunswick Logistics has implemented the PowerHouse/WMS
warehouse management system configured for 3PL apparel fulfillment.
Brunswick Logistics provider of
3PL services to the In Mocean Group (an industry leading swimsuit manufacturer)
made a strategic decision to grow their business by offering state-of-the-art
warehousing and fulfillment services to their customers. To be able to provide comprehensive
and competitive services Brunswick needed a warehouse
management system that supported 3PL operations, one that had apparel specific
functionality that manages the intricacies of style, color and size inventory
attributes. In Mocearn needed a
solution that would enable them to meet strict compliance requirements for
labeling, reporting, and EDI - the answer was obvious - PowerHouse..
Brunswick Logistics selected and
implemented the PowerHouse/WMS warehouse management system in their new 300,000
square foot distribution center.
PowerHouse gave Brunswick Logistics an end-to-end 3PL warehouse system that
provided a solution to control inventory from receipt through shipment and to
manage retail compliance and data interchange via EDI.
With their core business
focusing on apparel fulfillment, Brunswick Logistics needed a solution that was
designed for the unique challenges of the industry. Requirements for rainbow assortments,
store replenishments, carton ID traceability and many other customer
initiatives, required system driven processes to ensure that each customer's
needs are met. With PowerHouse/WMS
Brunswick was able to easily configure warehouse work flows, business rules,
documentation, and labels to meet each of their customers needs.
Brunswick Logistics also uses
PowerHouse/WMS to direct special projects and valued added services such as
price ticketing, boxing, GOH or re-cartonization.
The system captures value add metrics such as the type of task,
quantities, the users and the duration of each project which PowerHouse then
uses for billing calculations.
With PowerHouse/WMS Brunswick
Logistics is now able to serve the fulfillment needs of numerous apparel
manufactures and ships their products to most major retailers including:
Federated, Target, Wal-Mart, Nordstrom, the Sports Authority and many others.
