Apex Tool Group implements software

摘要

Apex Tool Group (ATG) is a leading global manufacturer of professional hand and power tools. Based in North Carolina, the manufacturer's 500,000-square-foot central DC serves multiple channels, including direct-to-consumer fulfillment, B2B distribution to retailers and shipments to other ATG DCs throughout the world. Similar to other DCs, ATG is operating in a tight labor market. To help alleviate labor challenges, reduce penalties and efficiently meet the stringent quality demands of its customer base, ATG has implemented a Work Execution software solution. Prior to the installation of the software solution, a warehouse management system (WMS) provided radio frequency (RF)-based work execution for picking and other DC processes. In addition, the WMS integrated with conveyor and sorta-tion systems, along with a pick-to-light module for each picking.
