Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG)
Maximize Customer Satisfaction and Brand Equity
Improve Business Processes
Omni-Channel and internet retail growth is putting the spotlight on warehouse performance in the consumer packaged goods industry. Large distribution center replenishment orders, direct to store and direct to consumer shipment coordination from charge-back happy retailers responding to “want-it-now!” consumers are creating new pressures.
In addition to coordinating overseas manufacturing and transportation efforts with suppliers and co-packers, you must be able to meet a variety of retail client requests for compliance, labeling, product bundling, and assembly while avoiding stock-outs. All of the spoils are going to those that can fulfill the “perfect order” on time, every time as part of a new Omni-Channel ecosystem that requires flexible systems and processes including:- Inbound goods management
- Inventory management and control
- Slotting
- Routing
- Product track and trace
- Value-added service management
- Waving and picking based on order profiles
- Compliance labeling and vendor pack slips
- EDI / ASN Integration with big-box retailers
- Materials handling and sortation integration
- Growing number of eCommerce, single line, low multi-line orders
- Profitable drop-shipping
- Integration between eCommerce web storefront and warehouse
- TMS, LTL and small parcel shipping integration
- Innovative distribution models (rentals, returns, warranty programs, and more)
