Operating 17 manufacturing facilities in the United States and Mexico, kitchen and bath cabinet manufacturer
and distributor American Woodmark
Corporation leverages Tecsys software to operate its centralized
distribution in Lincolnton, North
Carolina.
MONTREAL, Jan. 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --Tecsys Inc. (TSX:
TCS), an industry-leading supply chain management software company,
is delighted to announce that Winchester
Virginia-based kitchen and bath cabinet manufacturer and
distributor American Woodmark Corporation (NASDAQ: AMWD) has begun
a national supply chain transformation initiative to drive
operational efficiency across its major warehousing and
distribution facilities by leveraging Tecsys' warehouse management
software, Elite™ WMS. Having initiated the supply chain execution
system overhaul in April 2021, the
company seeks to expand the Tecsys environment in order to optimize
logistics resources and provide a platform for continued
growth.
"Our industry faces margin pressure by way of materials,
logistics and labor, so it is incumbent on us to seek out ways to
control operational costs," explains Mike
Feighery, VP Supply Chain at American Woodmark Corporation.
"Addressing supply chain inefficiencies with Tecsys software gives
us a means to optimize our operations in response to the shifting
conditions. It gives us better flexibility, visibility, and the
platform to be able to scale in size or complexity depending on the
market."
The Tecsys solution will be progressively deployed across all
American Woodmark distribution facilities, optimizing intra-network
logistics and streamlining warehouse and delivery management. This
supply chain transformation project improves business intelligence
for benchmarking industry KPIs, breaks down warehousing and
distribution silos, and provides end-to-end asset and inventory
visibility. The comprehensive rollout will afford American Woodmark
the functionality to be effective stewards of supply chain
resources in the context of market and global volatility.
"An effective national distribution strategy combines buildings,
technology, people, infrastructure, and everything in between,"
explains Bill King, chief revenue
officer at Tecsys. "As we work with American Woodmark, we are
delighted that our robust and scalable Elite™ WMS solution is part
of this formula for success. The scope of this project will provide
significant operational and financial benefit as it rolls out, and
we look forward to supporting American Woodmark's supply chain
optimization journey."
