Integrated management December 1st 2011 Tesco's flagship grocery distribution
centre in Daventry is the first in the
country to be designed and built
with Easilift Loading Systems' and
Traka's Dock Management System
(DMS) hi-tech reporting and safety
solution in mind.
Tesco has committed to installing
the system, which is designed to
prevent the premature departure of
vehicles from the loading bay, at the
Goods In section of all new Tesco
distribution centres across the UK.
Easilift believes that integrating the
DMS 'from birth' brings significant
cost savings alongside sizable
operational advantages.
"The Dock Management System
can be retro-fitted to existing
warehouses, but of course there are
benefits to incorporating it at the
design/build stage," explains Rob Fay,
MD of Easilift Loading Systems.
"Control panels and cabling
become integral with the bay design,
and we have been able to be much
more dynamic in the layout of
loading bays because of the
confidence that the DMS brings to
safety." More articles from Easilift Loading Systems Ltd: |
