Fuel Transport shifts warehouse management operations from
90% manual administrative work to 90% automatic system-driven
administrative work, driving major operational and client-facing
value.
MONTREAL, April 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Tecsys Inc.
(TSX: TCS), an industry-leading supply chain management software
company, today announced that Fuel Transport, a Montreal-based logistics and transportation
company, has implemented advanced supply chain execution software
into its warehousing operations to modernize its tech stack and
enable extended value-added 3PL services. This software
implementation strengthens Fuel's position as a growth-oriented
industry innovator and equips the 3PL with critical tools to serve
its clients better, faster and smarter.
Fuel has established a robust network of people, assets and
services that has allowed the company to aggressively expand its
capacity and order processing capabilities. This notable growth
compelled the organization to invest in its tech stack preemptively
so that the business could continue to expand both in scale and
service level. Central to this initiative, Fuel sought a warehouse
management platform with advanced capabilities that could both
handle the complexities of today's market and meet the operational
and visibility demands needed to set benchmarks in their industry
for years to come.
"With the expansion of our warehousing division, we needed more
accuracy and scalability in our infrastructure, with more
versatility for our clients, across our multiple locations," says
Peter Perrella, vice president,
Sales at Fuel. "Tecsys is a sophisticated, fully integrated and
flexible cloud-based WMS that provides a more diversified inventory
management system. Its real-time visibility will assist Fuel in
attracting high profile clients who require more than just a simple
in and out storage system. Tecsys can also support our business
model by managing complexities with ease as we explore other
avenues and future projects."
Ron McIntyre, vice president,
Technology & Innovation at Fuel, comments: "The Tecsys solution
reduces our reliance on manual record keeping and double keying, so
we are able to focus our resources on value-added services. Tecsys
has helped us move our warehouse administrative tasks from 90%
manual to 90% system-driven, which has equipped us with real-time
visibility and auditing capabilities, affording us a high degree of
confidence in our data. We are able to render that data into better
customer service, satisfying complex process and technology needs
for a new breed of 3PL client."
The Tecsys platform helps Fuel make smarter supply chain
decisions and serve its markets without disruption, despite
multiple nodes of volatility. For example, Fuel's Tecsys-powered
visibility enables the 3PL provider to hold more documented
inventory in the same space while driving better inventory and
order accuracy, instilling in clients a greater degree of
confidence even in challenging conditions.
"Tecsys gives us the operational agility and business
intelligence to be able to adapt along with our clients, providing
the best suited solutions to their individual needs. With Tecsys in
place, we can run sophisticated logistics on the backend, while
simplifying the client-facing experience," continues McIntyre.
"As the 3PL industry becomes more and more complex with the
demands of e-commerce and multichannel distribution, it is
incumbent on providers to harness that complexity as a competitive
advantage," says Vito Calabretta,
senior vice president of Global Operations at Tecsys. "Fuel's
investments in technology are doing just that. This is an
organization that is building a remarkable digital 3PL
infrastructure, and Fuel's customers will take notice. We are
delighted to serve as a central cog in this first-class
company."
