Rencontrez Blue Yonder
Événement
Prior to implementing Blue Yonder Warehouse Management, Medifast employees were hand-selecting boxes, measuring efficiency based on speed, and required two employees to scan, weigh and apply shipping labels. Now that the company has the product weights and dimensions loaded into the WMS, excessive use of void fill and delays from repacking can be avoided. The system can choose the right box and apply the shipping label on the front end before the order is picked. Products go right into the shipping box, instead of into a tote first reducing double touches and wasted labor.
Avantages de la solution
With the direct-to-work queue in warehouse management, Medifast employees are working in real-time, resulting in improved employee productivity and headcount optimization. Visibility into dimensional analysis reduces double working a pick and pack, reducing overall time to ship and labor costs, which in turn increases margin.
Blue Yonder’s experise
While Blue Yonder was a natural candidate because Medifast was already using its web commerce solution the company also considered four other software providers. In the end, by conducting site visits with existing customers and attending industry events, the team at Medifast decided Blue Yonder was the right partner.
