Refrigerated Warehouses To Benefit From Strategic Blend of Software and Automation Systems
Maves International Software, a global third party logistics software provider, has announced a strategic partnership with Daifuku America Corporation, a global leader in automated material handling solutions. The strategic partnership will integrate Daifuku's full suite of material handling solutions with Maves' e-Z Ware, the multi-client third party logistics industry's leading software. Companies within the refrigerated warehouse industry among others will benefit from this alliance of material handling industry specialists.
The partnership comes at a time when many companies, including many existing clients, are faced with changing dynamics in their supply chain. "As a leading provider of supply chain solutions, Maves has long recognized the value of efficient and accurate material handling," said Aaron Laird, President, Maves International Software. "Working with Daifuku immediately empowers our solution with their 69 years experience as one of the world's largest material handling logistics companies. By leveraging our complementary strengths and common vision, we are able to deliver superior solutions to our valued clients."
The synergistic partnership will benefit companies experiencing:
- Disproportionate inventory to order levels
- Less than 99.5% order accuracy
- Cluttered and disorganized WIP
- Workers spending 20% of their time walking, waiting or searching for material
- Long, complex, and convoluted material flow patterns
- Shipment errors exceeding 500 per million
- Actual transaction time that is over 3 times the theoretical transaction time
The companies will announce the partnership at the IARW 2006 convention during the seminar entitled "Is Your Supply Chain Trying to Catch Up With a World That Has Evolved Into A Demand Driven Supply Network?" Maves will host their new business partner in booth 303.
