RedPrairie boosts SCA Transforest warehouse operation
June 29th 2009

Logistics service provider SCA Transforest has implemented RedPrairie's Warehouse Management at seven of its European terminals, with two remaining sites to go live this summer.

As a result, SCA Transforest has benefited from lower distribution costs and streamlined warehouse processes. More importantly, the company is now serving numerous forestry product customers and can offer logistics services to other industries, something that was impossible with the old warehouse management system which supported forest products only.

"RedPrairie has helped streamline our warehouse processes," explains Thomas Granberg, System Owner at SCA Transforest. "The system has meant more efficient use of our warehouse space and we are now able to manage higher volumes. The direct loading of goods to ships or trucks has been greatly improved. We now have a real-time system giving us visibility across our various terminals making planning much easier than before.

"More and more companies are now discovering the benefits of working with us. They choose us because they can easily integrate their systems with ours and gain maximum control. Clients can now track their goods all the way from mill to end customer. We have achieved the goals we set."
