Grevenmacher (Luxembourg) – International logistics service provider Logwin and inconso AG concluded a master agreement at the end of April covering the use of the inconsoWMS suite of products and in doing so placed their long-established collaboration in the field of warehouse management systems on a new strategic footing. By implementing inconso software across the board Logwin will radically improve the systems and process environment at its business segment Solutions.
The new WMS will ensure uniform and more efficient processes and create the conditions necessary for implementing customers' increasingly sophisticated logistics requirements even faster and better. “We will be performing process re-engineering in the course of implementation at our sites. We will be modernizing our storage systems by integrating material-flow computers, RFID, weighing systems, pick-by-light and pick-by-voice processes as well as wireless data communications, ensuring that they are at the leading edge of technology,” explains Mario Kaimberger, responsible project manager and Director Operations Process Development at the Logwin business segment Solutions.
inconso, a leading consulting and software company for logistics solutions in Europe, will be supporting the logistics service provider not just with its software products. The software specialist will also be assisting Logwin in the course of the project in the areas of analysis, planning, implementation, change management and support for the new system. The decision in favor of inconso AG was made on the basis of the performance of the system, the range of modular extensions and last but not least the many years of successful and dedicated collaboration.
Exploiting synergies
“With the preconfigured and standardized version of the system, our so-called business template, we can create uniform processes across all our sites. We have already seen proof that we can implement new customer projects with this system even faster,” explains Karlheinz Venter, Director Business Development and Information Technology at the business segment Solutions. Other advantages that the standardized system brings with it include the more flexible deployment of staff between locations and one-off integration with the entire supply chain via standardized interfaces.
inconso also sees benefits in the long-term collaboration. “We are delighted about the master agreement with Logwin not just for purely sales reasons. We also hope to obtain valuable input for the further development of our systems,” says Ralf Winter, management team member at inconso and key account manager for Logwin.
