Here at Brendamour Warehousing, Distribution & Services, we respect the effort you put into your business every day to ensure success in today’s ever-competitive environment. That’s why we’ve implemented best practices throughout our entire warehouse facilities to ensure our technology, tools and processes are always evolving to allow you to gainfully compete in getting your products to market. When it comes to distribution, our best practices are aimed at making sure your goods leave our warehouse in the fastest and most cost-effective manner while maintaining quality and customer satisfaction.
At the heart of Brendamour’s best practices is our state-of-the-art technology, advanced tools, proven processes and dedicated people, all of which work in unison to achieve increased accuracy and service, and a reduction in cycle time and errors. Here’s a look at the key components of our distribution best practices program and how you benefit from it.
Automated Data Collection
Efficiency and accuracy are the focus as soon as your products arrive at a Brendamour warehouse. With our computerized warehouse management system (WMS), barcoding applications are automatically applied for proper inventory control, distribution and tracking. Throughout the entire supply chain process, technologically-advanced computer equipment and programs are in use to track inventory, shipping and order tracking, and give you secure, real-time online access to the status of your goods. Every movement of your product in our warehouse is recorded to ensure the integrity of your inventory data. These automated data collection best practices ensure the utmost accuracy and speed along the entire supply channel.
Meticulous Order Fulfillment
Our order fulfillment services incorporate quality checks so your products are distributed with the proper labeling, bundling, custom packing, or correctly performed light assembly work. Our best practices also ensure that:
- Separate zones are used for individual, case and full pallet item picking;
- The right equipment is assigned to the job;
- The picking operation is monitored so adjustments can be made in the picking staff to ensure a smooth workflow.
Wherever possible, we implement techniques that minimize touches, such as picking directly to the carton with scanning and confirmation at the pick point, print-and-apply labeling systems, in-motion weighing and manifesting, and automated sealing and taping.
Highly Automated Order Preparation
Because time is of the essence in getting your goods prepared for shipment, our best practices for distribution include a highly automated, fully adaptable shipping and routing computer and gravity conveyor system. Combined with our hands-free order picking technology, this ensures speed and accuracy in preparing shipments for distribution.
Constant Evaluation
At Brendamour Warehousing, Distribution & Services, we consistently monitor our distribution best practices and revise them based on our customers’ needs and requirements, advances in technology, and enhancements in distribution techniques and tools. We also recognize that best practices that may be good for one company or certain products may not be best for another. That’s why our best practices remain flexible and scalable to meet your needs. Please allow us the opportunity to show you how our best practices in distribution can achieve top results for your business.
