TRANSLOGIX, Australia and New Zealand’s leading supplier of transport and logistics solutions, has implemented an enterprise-wide 3PL warehouse system that has delivered significant and immediate benefits for Maxwell Logistics.
The Advanta 3rd Party Logistics Application Suite provides advanced functionality to manage all aspects of distribution, freight management, warehouse management, order processing, inventory and supply chain management.
Maxwell offers third party logistics (3PL) to many of New Zealand’s biggest names in fast moving consumer goods.
Maxwell operates the largest purpose-built warehousing and distribution facility in the South Island, with 12,000 racked pallet spaces available for products ranging from food, beverages and spices to hardware.
The company said it chose Advanta after a four year search which considered every warehouse management product in Australia and New Zealand.
According to the company, Advanta was the only solution offering the warehouse management, billing, freight and reporting functionality to meet requirements along with the full wireless capability needed to help streamline operations.
The company reported after less than two months, Advanta’s productivity has increased by at least 25% when picking and shipping products.
Maxwell said it continue to work with TransLogix over the next 12 months to build on the business intelligence, increasing visibility to further inform management decisions.
