The Challenge
A primary goal of Easy's was to improve the traceability and accuracy of inventory within the Distribution Center through integration with SAP ERP. The objective was to implement Oracle Warehouse Management System (WMS) with Easy's E-Commerce platform to effectively manage the click & collect order process, shipment of products to over 30 stores, and home delivery throughout Chile.
The Solution
Easy chose Accelalpha as their implementation partner based on Accelalpha’s consultants’ experience, knowledge, and administration of the Oracle Warehouse Management System (WMS) application. Accelalpha has expertise in logistics processes, e-commerce, and the day-to-day operation of legacy systems used by clients and delivered a successful Oracle WMS solution.
The Results
The Oracle WMS solution has effectively supported an increase in delivery volume during peak seasons such as the Country’s Cyber Day. As a result of this Oracle WMS solution, Easy has improved productivity and inventory management. Additionally, they now have 360° visibility for each order and delivery, which enables them to successfully manage peaks in order volume.
