CampSaver turned to WarehouseOS to become more efficient as the company grew. Tyler Shurtleff, CampSaver Director of Operations, explained, "Our biggest issue was bin utilization and not having the multi-bin functionality. Our previous problem was having one SKU per bin and that was it. With WarehouseOS we were able to do multi-bin and now we are able to scan and item in to multiple bins anywhere in the warehouse. The system will tell us where to pick it and it has increased our efficiency from a put-away stand point and it has increased our bin utilization."

Warehouse Mobile Solutions, the leader in logistics solutions is the maker of the state-of-the-art tablet directed, barcode and order fulfillment solution, WarehouseOS. The WarehouseOS customer does not initiate the process by shipping everything. WarehouseOS determines using tags, which orders are fully available to ship. WarehouseOS will pull orders from ShipStation which are awaiting shipment. Typically the orders will be allocated as they drop into WarehouseOS, if fully allocated the ShipStation order will be tagged as "allocated." Within WarehouseOS, partially allocated orders will be placed on hold, preventing short orders from being dropped to iPads and tagged as "short" in ShipStation. From ShipStation, the customer now has the visibility to print shipping documents only for orders tagged "allocated."

Order volumes might increase by 400% for a week which puts a big strain on warehouse operations. Most companies bring in temporary workers to help them meet the needs of their customers. One major problem with temporary workers is they do not know and understand the company's products. This requires the companies experienced employees to help train and manage the temporary workers.

A warehouse challenge that companies are facing today includes locating product. Many warehouses don't have any tools to help keep track of where the inventory is located. These operation rely heavily on "tribal knowledge" or the memory/experience of the workers. This puts the company in a difficult place, if an experienced employee decides to leave the company before their busy season, the company will have a hard time replacing that employee because of the time it will take to train them on the products and how they can find them.

A warehouse challenge that companies are facing today includes increased need for 100% accuracy. With the transition to eCommerce fulfillment comes the need for 100% accuracy.

Accuracy is imperative.
