Batteries Plus Finds Competitive Advantage in HighJump Software’s Adaptable Warehouse Management

The Challenge - Batteries Plus traditionally warehoused with a 3PL. But with its strong continual growth, the expansion to light bulbs and an increased need for space, the cost and complications of using a 3PL became too great. In addition, the lack of communication between systems – such as the inability of the Batteries Plus ERP to access the 3PL database – was hampering visibility across the network and creating doubts about the data’s accuracy.

The Solution - Batteries Plus chose HighJump Software’s WMS due to its demonstrated success in picking and shipping. Because the company has unique processes and merchandise that is often subject to government regulations, Batteries Plus found the ability to easily configure the WMS for its specific needs to be a true business advantage.

Results - Batteries Plus increased its product line and has seen no dip in picking accuracy, thanks to the ability of the HighJump WMS to conform to the specific business processes of the company and precisely track, pick and ship items.
