Q: WHY DID YOU START LOOKING FOR A NEW WAREHOUSING
SOLUTION?
A: Over the last few years Wolseley has embarked on a major
business change programme to re-design and standardise its
business processes and supporting information technology infrastructure
so it is ready to meet future business challenges.
One element of this programme is to provide a leading-edge
global warehouse management system across all its distribution
centres in North America and Europe. In turn this will interface
with a new core supply chain management (SCM) solution that
will begin implementation in the second quarter of 2008.
