Rapid delivery times for retail
June 1st 2008

Retailer John Lewis is enjoying growing sales and RedPrairie's Warehouse and Workforce Management has underpinned the rapid delivery times required.

Streamlined processes and real-time operations visibility enabled high system output at John Lewis's Northampton distribution centre in the 11 days prior to Christmas 2007, the period when the retailer earns 40% of its income. The voice-directed capabilities of Warehouse Management improved picking by 40% and consignment verification and put-away time dropped from 28 hours to three and a half.

Average ship lead times were cut from 51 hours to 38.

RedPrairie's solution suite will be live at all six John Lewis distribution centres by mid 2008.
