InfoMotion, a provider of end-to-end software solutions for the warehousing and logistics sector, has announced that eFulfillment Australia will go live with InfoMotion before the end of the year.
E-Fulfillment Australia operates a 3PL fulfillment warehouse in Melbourne and has provided fulfillment services including the design, development and management of eStores for Australian businesses since 2003.
In addition to providing product storage and time sensitive shipping, the company integrates its in-house order fulfillment and warehousing software with a customer’s eCommerce platform. This enables clients to access real-time order and inventory data through the use of tracking numbers which enable customers to track their delivery online.
InfoMotion’s icsLogistics solution, a single-platform, fully integrated logistics, warehousing and transport software system, will replace e-Fulfillment Australia’s incumbent warehousing solution which was no longer being further developed and equipped with new feature functionality.
“As a result, we went to market to deploy a new platform which could scale for our business and meet the demands for both our own company growth in the years ahead as well as support our customers’ ongoing requirements for agility, innovation and great customer experience,” said eFulfiilment Australia director Rob Harrison.
E-Fulfillment Australia will deploy the InfoMotion warehousing and transport feature functionality that will enable the company to manage and track the process of holding stock in a warehouse all the way through to delivery via third-party distributors and carriers. Key features include scanning products in and out, service tracking, reporting on scan and pick rates, stock holding, dispatching, order processing, receipt processing and managing transport and financials.
The 3PL warehouse management software is a paperless warehouse management system that caters to all modern contract logistics practices including cross-docking, auto put-away, rolling stock take, dangerous goods, multiple bin locations, pallet management and temperature zone control. It provides flexible provisions for reporting, customer web access and electronic data interchange (EDI). It also includes a flexible pricing structure for charging out pallet spaces and services.
At the same time, it will provide eFulfillment Australia with automated, integrated and real time client specific billing for every chargeable activity including handling, basic and minimum charging, extra items charging and storage by pallet, by location, by cubic, by product group and by commodity.
The InfoMotion icsTransport functionality will enable eFulfillment Australia to port data in real-time from their existing systems or directly from customers’ internal systems. Customer order management will be facilitated through both the client web portal and an EDI file interchange with automatic job rating, according to a customers’ rate card.
