Logistics company aligns resources to meet time, budget and complex demands of store set-ups, remodels, resets and installations in wide spread geographies.

New York, NY (PRWEB) - Growth in Omni-Channel commerce and fast-paced retail competition has increased the need for specialized logistics services in order to get store openings completed within tight time and budget constraints. The diverse geographic locations for national and global retailers present even greater challenges.

Axis Global Logistics, a leading transportation and supply chain solutions provider, has built a broad network of warehouse facilities to manage inventory staging for everything from shelving, fixtures, in-store graphics and even pop-up stores. Axis Global's 15 warehouse locations cover North America, Europe and Asia and are expanded with collaborative warehouse partners in extended regions.

Keeping the distributed inventories in sync requires a common software platform that manages receiving, storage, picking, shipping and returns. The Axis network is driven by warehouse management and inventory visibility systems from Cadre Technologies, Inc. an innovator in warehouse fulfillment software.

"We have built a seamless, single provider approach for retail installations," explained Brian Harvey, Executive Vice President at Axis. "We are involved and accountable at every stage from integrating key suppliers to coordination of delivery and installation. All of this is done to meet rigid deadlines and budgets."

The company has implemented a centralized Cadence Warehouse Management System (WMS) from Cadre. In remote Axis facilities, the company has deployed Accuplus, a specialized third party system from Cadre. Holding it all together is LogiView, a hosted inventory visibility and execution platform that controls location and movement. Partner warehouses were recruited from collaborative partners in other locations including Amware Logistics in Atlanta and Dependable Distribution in Los Angeles. Both companies use Cadence WMS.

"Having both Axis Global facilities and partner facilities on the same technology platform allows us to more effectively coordinate all of the supply chain activities," Harvey added. "We are able to offer more locations with collaborative warehouse partners on the same systems."

Beyond inventory, Axis provides delivery, installation, purchasing, printing, tear-down and returns to fill just about any gap in the full service model. Each project has its own set of challenges including delivery in the early hours in many cities to get better access when traffic is light.
