Case Study: NorthGate achieves a faster, simpler WMS upgrade with AccellosOne WMS from Accellos

Tentative at First, NorthGate Finds WMS Software Upgrade Fast, Easy

NorthGate, a Flint, Michigan-based reverse logistics provider for a major automaker, needed to upgrade its warehouse management system while preserving a highly customized process for parts returns, sorting, repacking, and cross-docking. The company had concerns about older software support, database complexity, and whether a new system could handle its extensive modifications without disrupting operations.

Accellos implemented an upgrade to AccellosOne WMS, working through a structured four-week rollout, testing, training, and reengineering customizations. The result was a faster, easier conversion that streamlined workflows, improved visibility, and eliminated more than half of NorthGate’s modifications, helping the company simplify operations without changing its physical warehouse processes.
