Infor, the industry cloud company, has announced that Reece Group, Australia’s plumbing and bathroom supplies business, has chosen Infor Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) multi-tenant SaaS to further optimise its operations and grow its business internationally.
Reece Group chose Infor WMS MT SaaS to enable quicker system rollout at new sites, improve operations, labour efficiency and speed up turn-around times while managing demand peaks and volumes.
Reece Group Chief Supply Chain Officer Marius Vermeulen said: “The ability to manage distribution centre activities more holistically, improving time, labour and cost efficiency, is vital for its growth plans, both domestically and overseas.”
“Reece Group currently supplies over 650 locations in Australia and New Zealand. We are designing our supply chain of the future with trusted partners and scalable technologies to ensure sustainable and efficient growth. A partner for over 20 years, Infor WMS fits the bill: it’s easy to configure and use, and offers a next-generation solution to drive the future of our business and keep us one step ahead of our customers’ needs.”
Infor WMS is an advanced warehouse management system that delivers much higher speed and accuracy. With embedded labour management and 3D visual analysis to reduce complexity, it provides unprecedented visibility into inventory, orders, equipment, and people to empower organisations to enrich service levels and increase product velocity.
According to Grand View Research, the global warehouse management systems market is anticipated to reach US$8.1 billion by 2028, with a growing transition towards cloud-based management systems. Cloud-based WMS allows organisations to offload time-consuming tasks such as maintenance, infrastructure upgrades and maintenance which have to be carried out on on-premise software.
“Cloud-based solutions are transforming the operations of businesses of all sizes. It’s a much more efficient and scalable way to manage and optimise operations, especially at a time when we’re seeing logistics systems under unprecedented pressure. The benefits of Infor’s cloud-based warehouse management system which offers complete transparency as well as enabling end-to-end tracking are second to none,” said Jarrod Kinchington, managing director, Infor Australia & New Zealand. “Infor WMS is central to helping businesses holistically manage distribution centres with the right tools to deliver exceptional operational capabilities.”
