    Perfect Path: Accelerate Your Returns!

    Tuesday, May 4th, 2010

    Exclusively for Accellos WMS customers, Accellos introduces a new module that can improve picking efficiency by up to 30%…dramatically improving your bottom line results.

    Imagine if your warehouse management system could automatically configure the best possible route for the pickers to take, and direct them on the most optimal path with no additional training.  If you are a unit or case pick distributor, up to 60% of your warehouse labor costs are tied up in the pick and pack process. What if you could reduce the picking time by 30-40% with a click of a button? Accellos has developed a solution that does just that. Accellos One Perfect Path is a new Warehouse Module that specifically focuses on the reduction of picker travel in unit and case pick distribution centers.  Perfect Path allows you to realize a significant ROI within the first 3 months of implementing the solution, which to most is a “no brainer.”
