JMK/IIT needed to move to a demand-driven inventory model

JMK/IIT, a long-time valued supplier to many of the nation's largest hardware retailers, stocking their shelves with everything from the latest mechanized screw drivers to tape measures and spray paint guns, had breached a growth ring where their existing infrastructure handling order fulfillment and order delivery activities had reached its limits. Shipping the right products to the right client, on time and in sufficient quantity to meet customer needs, was becoming a daily operational struggle. With customer service level agreements (SLAs) in jeopardy, JMK/IIT needed to move to a demand-driven inventory model. Fast.

JMK/IIT hit the nail on the head by achieving best-in-class customer service levels through the implementation of Integrated Warehousing Solutions IRMS Warehouse Management System. Every day, all across the nation, do-it-yourselfers walk into hardware stores, promotional flyers in hand, and walk out satisfied, not disappointed by an empty shelf, and having paid the advertised sales price for a first-class product delivered to the retailer by JMK/IIT.
