Press Release Summary: Tier 1 Distributors Find WCS Often More Effective than WMS
Press Release Body: QC Software is the leading provider of Tier 1 warehouse control systems to the warehousing and distribution industries. Since 1996, QC Software, utilizing state of the art technology combined with extensive research, development, and rigorous testing, has developed the QC Enterprise suite of products. Designed to be modular in nature, easily configurable, and platform independent, this highly scalable solution satisfies the needs of any size warehouse.
Tier 1 distributors should ask themselves these questions about warehouse efficiency.
• Are you growing so fast, you need help right now? • Does it take too long to get an order out the door? • Does your conveyor system look like the freeway during rush hour? (cartons everywhere...but going nowhere) • Are you losing customers to your competitors because you cannot ship orders fast enough? • Are you creating back-orders even though the SKU is in stock? • Are you concerned that your WMS is remote (off-site) and/or connectivity problems are bringing your operations to a halt? • Is dealing with different material handling equipment vendors causing support problems? • Do you want to improve your warehouse operations, but can\'t afford a new WMS?
According to Rich Hite, President of QC Software (www.qcsoftware.com), a leading warehouse control system software firm based in Cincinnati, OH, these are key questions that have a bottom-line impact to distribution operations.
QC Enterprise is a suite of software products that encompasses all of the tools necessary to efficiently and economically operate a warehouse or distribution center.
Traditionally, a Warehouse Control System (WCS) executes instructions provided by an upper level host system, such as an ERP system or a WMS system. QC Enterprise, on the other hand, is a true Tier 1 WCS which provides advanced management capabilities including inventory control, resource scheduling and order management.
QC Enterprise is comprised of 4 tightly integrated modules which provide state of the art warehousing capabilities and the QC Toolkit to easily configure QC Enterprise and its modules to fit any warehouse environment.
