Advanced Distribution And Logistics Chooses To Implement Datex EX 3PL WMS

Advanced Distribution and Logistics, a new 3PL company in St. Paul, Minnesota, has selected Datex International to implement their Warehouse Management System 3PL at their facility in order to provide clients with top of the line technology and service.

Advanced Distribution and Logistics provides an alternative for small, mid-sized and large companies in need of third party warehousing and distribution. The company has a combination of 30 years of experience in warehousing, shipping and technology management. With the implementation of the new system, Advanced will offer clients tracking of their inventory in real-time, EDI, internet portal, along with numerous value-added services. "We want to be able to promote the technology side of the business, so we want to have a WMS that is top of the line and will do everything that our clients request" explained Jerry Martin, Director for Advanced. "Instead of having our clients adapt to the system, we want the system to suit our client's needs".

Datex International will implement their WMS at the facility in St. Paul Park, MN. The implementation process will start after the completion of the Business Process Analysis where Datex Logistics Analysts will gather all the requirements needed to suit the needs of Advanced Distribution and its clients. Datex EX 3PL WMS is based on the use of RF and barcode technology providing real-time information of all the operations (inbound and outbound) and increasing visibility of customer's inventory levels. The system provides serial control, lot control, pallet tracking and different stock rotation processes allowing users to track virtually any kind of product.

"We looked at several different systems; we were looking for the right combination between price and functionality. Datex offered us a very reasonable price along with all the functionality that we needed. A system capable of handling RFID for the future was also important for us" commented Jerry.
