FRESNO, CA - Why struggle with handling dozens of tools and devices to manage your produce warehouses when it can be as easy as having one solution in the palm of your hand? That was exactly the idea that came to mind when Famous Software developed its latest product offering, Warehouse Management System (WMS).
"Our goal with Famous WMS was to create a fully-integrated product designed specifically for the Produce Warehouse User," explains Tony Fazio, Product Manager at Famous Software and manager of the company's mobile products. "Mobile device technology is an excellent tool that we can offer our customers to help them create efficiency, accuracy, and improved traceability with their Inventory Management Programs. We look forward to working with our customers to develop future WMS features and enhancements to help them meet the ever changing needs of the produce industry."
WMS was designed specifically with a produce warehouse in mind, Famous says, making it a perfect tool to take any operation to a more integrated, efficient, and accurate level. And because it’s already fully-integrated with your Famous V6 ERP, the product fits seamlessly in with your current programs and requires very little training. WMS will be used on ruggedized handheld Windows Mobile Devices.
One WMS user, Bryan Searcy, also Information Systems Manager at Pacific International Marketing, had quite the praise to share about the company’s newest offering. He shared, “Since installing Famous Mobile WMS at our processing facility in Gonzales, CA (Pure Pacific Organics), our ability to manage our inventory has increased significantly. We’re now able to track our inventory from the raw product coming in, to the storing of finished goods and shipping the product out. Using Famous Mobile WMS has completely eliminated misloads on trucks with the wrong product, which has more than paid for itself.”
When operating with Famous WMS, Mobile Warehouse receiving functions exist right at users’ fingertips. From ensuring load accuracy and efficiency by automating the inventory process, to allowing produce companies to scan Famous case tags, receive inventory from estimates at the cooler, and automatically print pallet tags from a mobile device, Famous WMS helps streamline warehouse work from top to bottom.
“Famous has been awesome to work with over the years as a technology partner,” Searcy continued. “They are highly motivated to meet our unique challenges and requirements while continuing to improve their software to meet the needs of the produce industry as a whole.”
